This serif face shows pronounced thick–thin modulation with crisp, wedge-like terminals that flare out from the stems rather than ending in flat slabs. Capitals are stately and relatively narrow, with sharp apexes (notably in A and W) and finely cut details that create a clean, high-definition silhouette. Lowercase forms keep a traditional rhythm with a moderate x-height, compact bowls, and tapered strokes that add a slightly calligraphic feel. Numerals follow the same sharp, sculpted logic, with clear contrast and pointed joining transitions.
Best suited to display and short-to-medium text where its contrast and flared terminals can be appreciated—magazine headlines, editorial decks, book covers and titles, and brand wordmarks. It can also work for pull quotes or elegant packaging copy when set with comfortable spacing and size.
The overall tone is polished and authoritative, blending classic bookish manners with a sharper, more fashion-forward edge. Its high-contrast modeling and flared endings give it a refined, slightly theatrical presence that reads as premium and intentional.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, high-contrast serif voice with flared, sharpened terminals—aiming for an upscale editorial look that feels classical in structure while modern in finish.
Stroke endings often resolve into pointed or triangular serifs/terminals, producing a distinctive sparkle in larger sizes. In text, the contrast and narrow set create a dark, elegant color with lively highlights at curves and joins.
