A high-contrast serif with substantial vertical stems and hairline connections, where many strokes widen into subtly flared, wedge-like endings. Serifs are sharp and angled rather than slabby, giving the letters crisp corners and a faceted feel, while curves show pronounced thick–thin modulation and a predominantly vertical stress. Proportions lean broad in the caps and many lowercase forms, with a steady, upright posture and clear, open counters; round letters like O and Q feel stately and sculpted, and diagonals (V/W/X/Y) end in pointed, blade-like terminals. The overall rhythm is bold in color yet elegant in detailing, producing strong word shapes at display sizes.
Best suited to display typography such as magazine headlines, editorial pull quotes, posters, and branded campaigns where strong contrast and sculpted serifs can carry the visual voice. It can also work for short passages or subheads when set large enough to preserve the fine hairlines and sharp terminals.
The tone is confident and upscale, combining classic bookish authority with a more theatrical, fashion-forward edge. The sharp, flared terminals and extreme contrast add a sense of drama and polish, suited to attention-grabbing headlines without feeling ornamental or whimsical.
The design appears intended to modernize a traditional high-contrast serif by emphasizing flared stroke endings and crisp, angular terminals, creating a bold editorial voice that feels both classical and contemporary. Its wide, emphatic letterforms suggest a focus on impactful display composition and strong typographic hierarchy.
In text settings, the weight and contrast create striking texture and clear hierarchy, while the thin hairlines and pointed joins read best with generous size and spacing. The design’s distinctive wedge terminals give even simple letters a branded, poster-like presence.
