A high-contrast serif with razor-thin hairlines set against strong verticals and a distinctly flared, calligraphic finishing to many strokes. Serifs are sharp and elegant, with subtle bracketing and wedge-like terminals that broaden at stroke ends, giving the letterforms a sculpted, tapered feel. Curves are smooth and taut, counters are relatively open, and round letters show a crisp modulation with fine joins. The lowercase is compact and efficient with a prominent x-height, while capitals are stately and slightly narrow in presence, creating a refined rhythm in text.
Best suited to headlines, pull quotes, and prominent typographic moments where its contrast and flared stroke endings can be appreciated. It also fits premium branding and packaging, as well as magazine and editorial layouts that benefit from a stylish, high-contrast serif voice.
The overall tone is polished and high-end, combining classic bookish authority with contemporary fashion-editorial sharpness. The strong contrast and knife-edge details add drama and sophistication, lending a sense of exclusivity and curated elegance.
The design appears intended to deliver an upscale, editorial serif with pronounced stroke modulation and distinctive flared terminals—aiming for elegance and impact while maintaining enough structure for setting short passages in larger sizes.
In text, the extreme contrast produces a vivid light–dark sparkle and crisp word shapes, while the flared terminals keep it from feeling purely Didone. The numerals and capitals read as display-forward, with a poised, formal cadence that suits carefully typeset settings.
