A heavy display serif with striking thick–thin contrast and sculpted, wedge-like flares at many stroke endings. Curves are full and rounded, while joins and terminals often resolve into crisp, pointed shapes that create a lively, cut-in rhythm across words. Proportions feel classic and fairly compact in the lowercase, with a steady baseline and strong vertical emphasis; the overall texture is bold and inky with sparkling highlights from the fine hairlines.
Best suited to headlines, magazine and book covers, posters, and campaign typography where contrast and sculpted details can be appreciated. It can work well for fashion, beauty, culture, and luxury branding, as well as striking packaging and pull quotes. For long passages of small text, the delicate hairlines and high contrast may be less forgiving than in display settings.
This typeface projects a confident, editorial voice with a touch of theatrical flair. The sharp, flared terminals and pronounced contrast lend it a dramatic, high-fashion sensibility that feels premium and attention-grabbing rather than neutral.
The design appears intended to maximize impact at large sizes by pairing substantial main strokes with razor-thin hairlines and distinctive flared finishing. Its sharpened terminals and sculptural negative spaces suggest a goal of creating a recognizable, logo-friendly voice while retaining a traditional serif foundation.
The sample text shows strong word-shape presence and a lively rhythm created by pointed flares and tight interior cuts, especially noticeable in letters with bowls and joins. Numerals match the display character, with bold forms and sharp, stylized terminals that keep the set visually cohesive.
