A high-contrast serif with crisp hairlines and strong, slightly flared stroke endings that give stems a subtly sculpted, chiseled feel. The capitals are stately and wide-set, with sharp triangular serifs and clean, upright construction; curves (C, G, O, Q) show delicate stress and fine entry/exit strokes. Lowercase forms balance sturdy verticals with tapered joins, featuring a two-storey a, a compact e with a fine crossbar, and a flowing g with a pronounced ear and generous lower bowl. Numerals follow the same contrast-driven rhythm, with sturdy main strokes and refined terminals that read clearly at display sizes.
This font is well suited to display applications such as headlines, magazine and book covers, posters, and refined branding where high contrast and sharp detailing can shine. It can also work for short subheads or pull quotes when set large enough to keep the hairlines from thinning out.
The overall tone is formal and polished, projecting a classic editorial sophistication with a hint of theatrical drama from the strong thick–thin rhythm. Its flared finishing and sharp serifs lend a crafted, luxe impression suited to premium, culture-forward typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on classical high-contrast serif typography, combining traditional proportions with flared, sculptural terminals for added character and presence in modern layouts.
Spacing appears generous and the face maintains a consistent contrast model across cases, creating a bright typographic color in text lines. The most delicate hairlines and tight joins suggest it will look best when given room and printed or rendered at sufficient size to preserve the fine details.
