A high-contrast serif with sculpted, wedge-like serifs and sharply cut terminals that give the letterforms a carved, calligraphic feel. Strokes move quickly from thick verticals to hairline joins, with teardrop and ball-like details appearing on several lowercase forms and punctuation-like terminals. The overall build is sturdy and display-leaning, but with traditional proportions and clear counters; curves are taut and the rhythm is lively, with noticeable modulation through bowls and diagonals.
Best suited for headlines, decks, pull quotes, and other large-size settings where its contrast and sharp detailing can shine. It fits magazine and editorial design, luxury branding, packaging, and poster work that benefits from a classic serif voice with a dramatic presence.
The font conveys an editorial, high-fashion tone—confident, dramatic, and refined. Its sharp finishing and bold silhouettes suggest luxury and seriousness, while the calligraphic inflection adds a slightly theatrical, expressive edge.
Designed to deliver a traditional serif structure with heightened contrast and sculptural finishing, aiming for strong shelf impact and an upscale editorial character. The letterforms prioritize distinctive silhouette and typographic color in display contexts while retaining recognizable, conventional serif proportions.
Uppercase forms are broad and imposing with prominent serif beaks and deep internal shaping, while the lowercase shows more personality through rounded entry/exit strokes and occasional ball terminals. Numerals follow the same contrast and crisp serif treatment, reading best at larger sizes where the hairlines and small details remain clear.
