A sculptural serif with bold, flared stroke endings and sharp triangular notches that create a cut-in, stencil-like separation at joins and terminals. The letterforms are built from smooth, convex curves paired with crisp wedge serifs, producing a rhythmic pattern of dark masses and small internal breaks. Proportions feel display-oriented with compact counters and assertive verticals; round letters like O/C show deep, symmetrical cut-ins, while diagonals (V/W/X/Y) are sharp and chiseled. Numerals echo the same carved construction, with strong geometric silhouettes and distinctive split terminals that maintain a consistent motif across the set.
Best suited for headlines, magazine mastheads, fashion/editorial layouts, branding marks, and striking packaging where its carved details can stay legible. It performs well in short bursts—titles, pull quotes, and campaign lines—especially when given room to breathe. For longer passages, larger sizes and careful spacing help preserve clarity and reduce visual busyness.
The overall tone is luxurious and fashion-forward, with a theatrical, crafted quality reminiscent of carved signage or couture titling. Its repeated notches and flares lend an intentionally stylized, slightly enigmatic character that reads as premium and attention-grabbing rather than neutral. The texture on the page feels confident and graphic, suited to moments where the typography should carry personality.
The design appears intended to reinterpret a classic serif into a modern, decorative display voice by introducing systematic notches and flared terminals. This creates a signature texture and a sense of crafted precision, aiming for strong shelf and poster impact while maintaining recognizable serif letter structures.
In text samples, the distinctive cut-ins become a repeating pattern that adds sparkle and visual cadence, but also increases complexity at smaller sizes. The design maintains consistent detailing across capitals, lowercase, and figures, giving headings a cohesive, branded look when set with generous tracking and ample whitespace.
