A high-contrast serif with sculpted, wedge-like terminals and distinctive internal cutouts that create a stencil-like, notched impression in many letters. Curves are smooth and generous, while joins and serifs resolve into crisp points and angled blades, producing a strong black-and-white shimmer across words. Proportions are on the broad side with ample counters, and the lowercase shows a prominent x-height that keeps text color bold and present at display sizes. The design maintains consistent sharpness and geometry, with repeated triangular incisions and tapered strokes establishing a cohesive decorative system.
Best suited for display typography such as magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, posters, and cultural/event identities where a distinctive serif can carry the layout. It can also work for logotypes, packaging, and pull quotes where the sharp terminals and cutouts become a signature detail. For longer passages, it will perform more reliably when given generous size, tracking, and line spacing so the internal notches don’t visually crowd.
This typeface conveys a dramatic, editorial voice with a fashion-forward edge. The sharp cut-ins and glossy contrast create a sense of luxury and theatricality, while the overall rhythm feels deliberate and designed for impact rather than neutrality. It reads as refined but idiosyncratic—more boutique and art-directed than utilitarian.
The design appears intended to merge classic serif structure with a contemporary, cut-and-carved motif that increases visual intrigue in headlines. Its contrast and pointed terminals aim to produce strong typographic sparkle and a memorable silhouette, prioritizing distinctiveness and brand character over unobtrusive reading.
In sample text, the repeated triangular cut-ins create a lively texture and strong word-shape recognition, especially in capitals. Numerals share the same sharp, carved logic, helping the font remain consistent in titling and date/price settings.
