A high-contrast serif with sculpted, flaring stroke endings that read like wedge-shaped serifs and tapered terminals. Vertical strokes stay firm and straight while curves transition quickly into thin hairlines, creating a crisp, chiseled rhythm. The capitals are stately and open with sharp joins and pointed diagonals, and the lowercase shows compact, editorial proportions with a two-storey “a” and “g,” a narrow, elegant “e,” and clean, tapered entry/exit strokes. Numerals follow the same carved logic, with pronounced thick–thin modulation and sharp finishing cuts.
Best suited to display and headline settings such as magazine titles, editorial layouts, luxury branding, packaging, and poster typography where its high-contrast construction and flared endings can be appreciated. It can also work for short pull quotes and subheads when set with enough size and breathing room to preserve the fine hairlines.
The overall tone is refined and commanding, with a fashion/editorial polish and a slightly theatrical edge from the exaggerated contrast and sharp finishing details. It feels formal and premium, suited to designs that want to look established, curated, and confident rather than casual.
The design appears intended to merge classical serif proportions with a more sculptural, flared finishing language, prioritizing elegance and visual impact. Its crisp contrast and carved terminals suggest a focus on contemporary editorial and brand-forward applications where sophistication and authority are key.
In text, the strong contrast and crisp terminals create striking word shapes and a lively texture, especially at larger sizes. The pointed serifs and hairline connections suggest it benefits from comfortable size and spacing where its delicate parts can remain clear.
