A tightly condensed serif with pronounced stroke contrast and a distinctly flared, chiseled terminal treatment. Vertical stems dominate the texture, swelling subtly toward the ends, while hairline horizontals and fine joins create a crisp, engraved rhythm. Serifs read as tapered and bracketed rather than blocky, with sharp interior corners and narrow apertures that keep the overall color dense and authoritative. Capitals feel tall and statuesque; lowercase maintains a moderate x-height with compact bowls and clean, upright stress. Numerals follow the same narrow, high-contrast logic, with elegant curves and fine entry/exit strokes.
Best suited to display typography where a compact width and high contrast can be an advantage: magazine headlines, fashion and culture editorial, posters, and premium brand identities. It also works well for titling, pull quotes, and packaging where an elegant but assertive serif voice is desired.
The overall tone is formal and dramatic, projecting luxury and a slightly old-world, print-forward sophistication. Its narrow, high-contrast build gives it a poised, fashion/editorial attitude, while the flared terminals add a crafted, stone-cut or engraved impression.
The design appears intended to deliver a refined, space-efficient display serif with heightened contrast and distinctive flared finishing, offering a luxurious editorial feel while maintaining a disciplined, upright structure.
At text sizes the condensed proportions and fine hairlines create a strong vertical cadence and a punchy headline color; in longer passages it will read more intense and display-oriented than conversational. The design’s sharp detailing and tapered endings reward generous sizing and careful spacing, especially in all-caps settings.
