A high-contrast serif with strong verticals, razor-thin hairlines, and crisp, largely unbracketed serifs that read as pointed wedges in places. The letterforms show a pronounced thick–thin rhythm and a vertical stress, with broad proportions and tight counters that create dense, punchy texture. Terminals are clean and decisive, and several joins and diagonals resolve into sharp triangular details, giving the design a sculpted, cut-paper feel. In text settings it forms bold, dark lines with clear stroke modulation and a distinctly display-oriented cadence.
Best suited to headlines, titles, magazine layouts, posters, and branding where high contrast and sharp detailing can be appreciated at larger sizes. It can also work for short bursts of text such as pull quotes or section openers, where the dense texture becomes a feature rather than a readability constraint.
The overall tone is assertive and theatrical, combining classic didone-like elegance with a slightly edgy, angular bite. It feels editorial and fashion-forward, suited to statements that should look polished but uncompromising.
The design appears intended to deliver high-impact, refined display typography: a contemporary take on high-contrast serifs that emphasizes crisp detailing, vertical elegance, and a bold editorial presence.
Uppercase forms carry strong monumentality and symmetry, while the lowercase maintains a firm, upright stance with compact bowls and crisp entry/exit strokes. Numerals match the same contrast and weight distribution, producing a consistent, impactful color across mixed-content headlines.
