This typeface features sculpted serif forms with pronounced wedge-like serifs and flared stroke endings. Strokes transition sharply between thick verticals and hairline connections, creating a crisp, high-contrast rhythm. Curved letters show a slightly sheared, calligraphic stress and tapered joins, while counters are generous and open. The overall construction is sturdy and display-oriented, with crisp edges and a tightly controlled, formal silhouette across upper- and lowercase and numerals.
Best suited to large sizes where its contrast and flared details can be appreciated—editorial headlines, magazine covers, posters, and brand wordmarks. It can also work for premium packaging or short pull quotes, where its dramatic texture adds hierarchy and personality.
The tone is bold and theatrical, pairing classic editorial refinement with a modern, attention-grabbing punch. Its sharp contrast and flared finishing strokes give it a sense of prestige and seriousness, while the dynamic curves add energy and drama.
The design appears intended to deliver a refined, high-impact serif voice that feels rooted in classic letterforms while emphasizing sharp contrast and flared terminals for contemporary display use.
In text settings, the strong contrast and pointed terminals produce a lively texture and prominent word shapes, especially in capitals. Numerals follow the same sculpted logic, with elegant curves and distinct, sharp transitions that read as stylish rather than utilitarian.
