An upright display serif with high-contrast construction and a crisp inline incision running through many strokes, creating a carved, cut-out look. Letterforms mix geometric bowls and verticals with flared, tapered terminals, producing a sleek silhouette while maintaining sharp interior shaping. The inline treatment varies by glyph—sometimes centered as a narrow slit, sometimes offset—adding visual movement and a slightly bespoke, engraved rhythm. Proportions read tall and elegant, with narrow joins, pronounced vertical stress, and compact curves that keep counters tight and graphic.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and large-scale editorial display where the inline detailing can be appreciated. It also fits branding applications like logotypes, labels, and packaging that benefit from a vintage-luxe, carved aesthetic. For continuous reading or small UI sizes, the interior incisions may become busy, so larger sizes and generous spacing tend to work better.
The overall tone feels cinematic and period-evocative, recalling signage, packaging, and titling from early-to-mid 20th century styles. The inline carving adds a sense of luxury and showmanship, giving words a spotlighted, theatrical presence that reads more like display lettering than plain text.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, high-style display voice by combining a refined serif foundation with an engraved inline effect. The goal is likely to produce striking word shapes with a decorative internal rhythm—ideal for titles and identity work that needs presence without resorting to heavy ornament.
In longer sample lines the internal cuts create lively texture and shimmer, but they also raise typographic “color” and can reduce clarity at small sizes. The numerals and uppercase forms lean especially bold in personality due to the prominent verticals and the strong contrast between thick stems and delicate inlines.
