A highly stylized serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, tapered terminals. Strokes swell into triangular, flared endings rather than finishing with flat slabs, producing a sculpted, cut-from-paper look. The capitals feel tall and stately with sharp apexes and strong vertical emphasis, while the lowercase keeps a compact, readable structure with a relatively even x-height and distinctly weighted bowls. Spacing and rhythm are tight and punchy, and the numerals share the same dramatic contrast and angular finishing, giving the full set a cohesive, display-forward texture.
Best suited to large-size typography such as headlines, cover lines, posters, and short editorial passages where the sharp contrast can be appreciated. It also fits branding and packaging applications that want a luxe, assertive serif presence with a distinctive, sculpted finish.
The tone is bold and ceremonial, mixing classical refinement with a slightly edgy, fashion-forward sharpness. It reads as premium and attention-grabbing, with a theatrical contrast that feels suited to high-impact statements rather than quiet body text.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through high contrast and flared, wedge-like terminals, evoking engraved or carved letterforms while maintaining a contemporary, fashion/editorial sensibility. Its priorities are character and presence, with consistency across capitals, lowercase, and figures for confident display composition.
In text settings the extreme contrast and flared ends create a lively, shimmering texture, especially around rounded forms and diagonals. The design’s angular terminals and strong joins give it a distinctive voice that benefits from generous size and careful tracking, where the sculptural details remain clear.
