A high-contrast serif with sharp, tapered hairlines and weighty vertical stems that swell into subtly flared, bracketed terminals. The overall drawing feels crisp and sculptural: curves are smooth and tightly controlled, joins are clean, and counters are compact, giving the face a strong black-and-white rhythm. Proportions lean slightly condensed in the capitals, while the lowercase maintains a steady, readable x-height with pronounced ascenders and descenders; the roman forms stay upright and formal. Numerals match the text color with bold figures and fine internal cuts, reinforcing the dramatic thick–thin cadence.
Best suited to display settings such as magazine headlines, editorial decks, posters, and high-impact packaging or brand marks where contrast and sharp detailing can be appreciated. It can work for short passages at larger sizes, but the thin hairlines suggest keeping to generous sizes and clean reproduction conditions.
The tone is elegant and commanding, with a runway/editorial kind of polish. Its pronounced contrast and sharp finishing details communicate sophistication and drama rather than casual warmth, giving text a poised, high-end feel.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, fashion-forward take on a classic high-contrast serif, using flared/bracketed endings and tight curves to create a distinctive, premium voice for display typography.
In the sample text, the face produces dense, authoritative headlines with distinctive sparkle from the hairlines and inner curves. The italic is not shown; the presentation emphasizes the roman’s strong verticality and crisp terminal treatment.
