This serif face shows pronounced thick–thin modulation with sharply tapered, wedge-like serifs and crisp, knife-edged joins. Many strokes exhibit a slightly sheared, calligraphic stress, and curved letters resolve into teardrop-like terminals that add a sculpted, ink-trap-adjacent feel without becoming a slab. Proportions are compact with tall capitals and a relatively contained x-height, while counters remain open enough to keep the texture legible in display settings. Overall rhythm is lively and slightly irregular in a controlled way, with distinctive silhouettes in letters like Q, G, and the lowercases a, g, and y.
Best suited for display typography such as magazine headlines, posters, book or album covers, and brand marks where a sharp, sophisticated serif can carry the composition. It can also work for short editorial subheads or pull quotes when set with comfortable line spacing to let the crisp serifs and delicate hairlines breathe.
The tone blends traditional bookish authority with a theatrical edge. It reads as elegant and editorial at first glance, but the pointed serifs and expressive terminals introduce a subtle eccentricity that feels fashion-forward and attention seeking.
The design appears intended to reinterpret a classical high-contrast serif through a more stylized, sculptural lens—maintaining a formal foundation while adding distinctive pointed serifs and expressive terminals to stand out in contemporary display use.
The numerals mirror the same sharp, tapered detailing and high-contrast structure, giving figures a strong presence in headings. In text samples, the spacing and vertical emphasis create a dark, confident color that benefits from generous leading, especially as the pointed serifs and thin hairlines become more visually active.
