A sculptural serif with high-contrast-like silhouettes that are built from bold, tapered strokes and sharp, triangular terminals. Serifs flare and wedge into the stems rather than sitting as flat slabs, creating pointed entry/exit cuts and occasional ink-trap-like notches. Curves are generous and round in bowls and counters, while joins and diagonals stay crisp and angular, producing a lively rhythm across words. Uppercase forms feel stately and display-oriented, and the lowercase keeps compact counters with distinctive, calligraphic-looking cuts on letters like a, e, s, and t.
Best suited to headlines, magazine covers, pull quotes, and brand marks where the pointed terminals and sculpted serifs can be appreciated. It also works well for premium packaging and campaign graphics that benefit from a refined, distinctive serif voice. For longer text, it will be most effective when set with generous size and spacing.
The overall tone is elegant and editorial, with a dramatic, fashion-forward edge. Its sharp terminals and stylized cuts add a sense of sophistication and intentionality, reading as curated and premium rather than utilitarian. The design balances classic serif cues with a modern, slightly theatrical flair.
Likely drawn to deliver a recognizable editorial serif with a custom, decorative construction—using wedge serifs, sharp terminals, and carved-looking joins to create a memorable display texture while remaining broadly legible.
The strong internal cuts and pointed terminals can create sparkle at larger sizes but may feel busy in dense settings. Numerals and capitals carry the same wedge-and-notch motif, giving headlines a cohesive, branded texture.
