This serif face is built around strong vertical stems and extremely fine hairlines, creating a striking high-contrast rhythm. Serifs are sharp and largely bracketed, with wedge-like terminals and crisp, pointed joins that give the letters a sculpted, cut-from-black look at display sizes. Curves are smooth and taut, counters are relatively compact, and the overall spacing feels substantial, producing a dense, authoritative texture in text. The lowercase shows traditional, two-storey forms (notably a and g) with pronounced contrast and firm, upright posture.
Well suited to headlines, deck copy, and pull quotes where its contrast and sharp serif detailing can be appreciated. It also fits premium branding and packaging that benefits from a classic-yet-dramatic typographic voice, and works effectively in poster-style layouts and editorial design with ample size and leading.
The tone is assertive and refined, combining editorial polish with a dramatic, fashion-forward sharpness. Its crisp serifs and hairline details read as premium and formal, with a hint of theatrical flair when set large.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a traditional high-contrast serif, emphasizing sharp terminals, elegant hairlines, and a commanding vertical rhythm for impactful display typography.
At larger sizes the hairlines and pointed terminals become a key visual feature, while in heavier text blocks the dense black strokes create a strong, headline-centric presence. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with elegant curves and tapered details that echo the letterforms.
