A high-contrast serif with crisp, tapered joins and flared stroke endings that give stems a subtly sculpted, brush-like finish. Serifs are sharp and wedge-shaped rather than bracketed, with narrow hairlines and pronounced thick–thin transitions. The uppercase shows tall, elegant proportions and slightly triangular terminals, while the lowercase maintains a steady rhythm with compact bowls and clean, open counters. Numerals follow the same contrast and tapering logic, reading clearly in display sizes with a distinctly stylized silhouette.
Best suited to headlines, magazine typography, pull quotes, and poster work where the contrast and flared detailing can be appreciated. It can also support premium branding and packaging when used with generous spacing and at display sizes to keep hairlines crisp.
The overall tone is polished and editorial, balancing classical bookish cues with a more fashion-forward sharpness. Its dramatic contrast and pointed terminals feel confident and upscale, suited to settings where a sense of sophistication and presence is desired.
The design appears intended to reinterpret classic high-contrast serif forms with flared, calligraphic finishes, delivering a refined display voice that stands out in contemporary editorial and branding contexts.
In text samples, the font creates a lively shimmer from alternating thick stems and fine hairlines, which enhances elegance but makes it most compelling at larger sizes. Curved letters show smooth, controlled modulation, and the flared endings add character without becoming ornamental.
