A sculpted serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and flared, gently bracketed terminals that widen as strokes approach their ends. The letterforms feel broad and open, with ample internal space and a steady, upright stance. Curves are smooth and rounded, while joins and terminals stay crisp, creating a refined rhythm with clear vertical emphasis. Lowercase shows a balanced, readable build with a moderate x-height and distinctive, slightly calligraphic stress in bowls and counters; figures are similarly high-contrast and formally drawn.
Well suited to display typography such as magazine headlines, decks, pull quotes, and premium brand identities where high-contrast detail is an asset. It also fits upscale packaging and poster work, and can work for short-to-medium editorial settings when set with comfortable size and spacing.
The overall tone is polished and editorial, balancing classic bookish heritage with a fashion-forward sharpness. Its dramatic contrast and sculpted terminals convey luxury and confidence, while the upright, open proportions keep it composed rather than ornate.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-contrast serif voice with flared, sculptural stroke endings that add character without abandoning traditional proportions. It aims for an elegant display presence that remains structured and readable across a range of statement-driven applications.
In text, the strong contrast and flared endings create a lively texture and prominent word shapes, especially in capitals and rounded letters. The design reads best when allowed breathing room, where its crisp terminals and swelling strokes can remain distinct without darkening into a dense mass.
