This typeface is a high-contrast serif with sharp, tapered hairlines and substantial vertical stems that widen into subtly flared, wedge-like terminals. Serifs and terminals feel carved rather than bracketed, giving strokes a chiseled, directional finish. The proportions are classical and relatively narrow in many capitals, with round forms (O, C, G) showing clean, smooth curves and tight apertures. Lowercase combines compact bowls and pronounced stroke modulation; joins and shoulders are crisp, and several letters show elegant, slightly calligraphic inflections that emphasize vertical rhythm. Figures follow the same sculpted contrast, with slender diagonals and pointed finishing strokes that read distinctly at display sizes.
Best suited to display typography such as magazine mastheads, editorial headlines, fashion and beauty branding, and premium packaging where contrast and sculpted terminals can be appreciated. It can work for short paragraphs or pull quotes at generous sizes, but will be most confident in titles, covers, and high-impact typographic compositions.
The overall tone is polished and assertive, projecting a couture/editorial sophistication with a slightly dramatic, headline-forward personality. The sharp contrast and flared endings add a sense of ceremony and luxury, while the controlled geometry keeps it composed and contemporary rather than ornamental.
The design appears aimed at delivering a modern luxury serif with dramatic contrast and flared, chiseled terminals—balancing classic Roman proportions with a crisp, editorial finish for branding and headline use.
In text settings, the strong vertical emphasis and thin hairlines create a lively shimmer; spacing appears intended to breathe at larger sizes where the delicate strokes remain clear. Distinctive stroke endings and tapered joins contribute to a bespoke feel across both uppercase and lowercase.
