This typeface presents a high-contrast serif construction with hairline horizontals and pronounced thick-to-thin transitions in the vertical strokes. Serifs are sharp and wedge-like, often tapering into flared, blade-style endings that give the letters a sculpted, slightly calligraphic finish rather than purely bracketed forms. Curves are taut and clean, with smooth bowls and pointed terminals on forms like C, G, S, and the lowercases. The lowercase shows a two-storey a and g, compact apertures, and a relatively tidy rhythm that stays controlled even at display sizes; figures follow the same contrast and sharp finishing, with notably elegant 2, 3, 5, and 9 shapes.
Best suited for display typography such as magazine headlines, mastheads, and pull quotes where its contrast and crisp terminals can shine. It also fits luxury branding, cosmetic and fashion packaging, and logotypes that benefit from a refined, high-impact serif voice. For longer passages, it works most comfortably when set with generous size and spacing to preserve the delicacy of the hairlines.
The overall tone is polished and high-fashion, with a dramatic, editorial sheen. The sharp hairlines and flared serif behavior add a sense of precision and ceremony, while the tight, sculptural curves keep it modern and poised. It reads as confident and premium, suited to settings where elegance and contrast are meant to be noticed.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a high-contrast serif with flared, sharpened endings—prioritizing elegance, drama, and a premium editorial feel. Its controlled proportions and consistent contrast suggest a focus on sophisticated display use while keeping letterforms disciplined and readable at larger text sizes.
In the text sample, the heavy contrast creates striking word shapes and strong vertical emphasis, especially in capitals and in dense lines. Hairlines and inner joins become very fine in smaller details, so the design’s character is most apparent when given enough size and breathing room. Uppercase forms feel stately and formal; lowercase maintains a refined, contemporary bookishness without becoming ornate.
