A high-contrast serif with sculpted, flaring stroke terminals and a distinctly calligraphic stress. The letterforms are wide with generous bowls and open counters, while hairlines stay extremely fine against bold verticals, producing a crisp black–white rhythm. Serifs are sharp and often wedge-like, with subtle bracketing and tapering that gives stems a carved, expanding finish rather than blunt endings. Overall spacing reads open and headline-friendly, and the figures follow the same contrasty, display-oriented construction.
Best suited to display use such as magazine headlines, editorial spreads, brand wordmarks, and premium packaging where its contrast and flared details can be appreciated. It can also work for short pulls or deck copy, but will be most effective at larger sizes and on high-quality output where fine hairlines reproduce cleanly.
The tone is elegant and assertive, combining a classic bookish foundation with fashion-forward drama. Its razor-thin hairlines and flared finishing strokes create a refined, high-end feel that reads as confident and a bit theatrical at larger sizes.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-contrast serif voice with flared, chiseled terminals—balancing classical letterform traditions with a contemporary, couture-like sharpness for attention-grabbing typography.
In text settings the strong contrast creates pronounced sparkle, with thin joins and hairlines becoming a defining texture. The wide proportions and sharp terminals make it feel most comfortable when allowed room to breathe, where the sculpted detailing remains clear.
