A sculpted serif with pronounced stroke modulation and flared, wedge-like endings that read as carved rather than bracketed. Vertical strokes dominate, while hairlines are notably thin, producing crisp internal counters and sharp joins. The letterforms feel compact and sturdy, with slightly condensed capitals, energetic diagonals, and frequent tapering into pointed terminals. Numerals and lowercase follow the same high-contrast rhythm, with single-storey forms (notably the a) and a broadly consistent, display-oriented texture.
Best suited to headlines, magazine layouts, and poster typography where strong contrast and sculpted serifs add personality. It also fits premium branding and packaging that benefits from a dramatic, upscale voice, particularly when set with generous spacing and clean supporting typography.
The tone is assertive and theatrical, balancing classical refinement with a modern, fashion-forward edge. Its sharp flares and dramatic contrast evoke luxury publishing, high-end branding, and title typography where elegance is meant to feel bold and attention-commanding.
The design appears intended to merge classical serif authority with a distinctive flared-terminal gesture, creating a recognizable display face for modern editorial and brand applications. The emphasis on sharp tapers, compact shapes, and high contrast suggests a focus on impact and sophistication over long-form neutrality.
At text sizes the dense color and thin hairlines can create a lively, shimmering texture, especially in tighter letter pairs. The distinctive flare treatment gives a signature look that stands out most in headlines, where the pointed terminals and sculptural curves have room to breathe.
