This typeface is a high-contrast serif with sculpted, flared terminals and finely tapered hairlines. Strokes show a pronounced thick–thin modulation with a largely vertical stress, giving round letters crisp, glossy highlights and deep, dark main stems. Serifs are sharp and elegant with subtle bracketing and wedge-like shaping, and many joins and terminals feel chiseled rather than purely geometric. Proportions are moderately condensed in the capitals with generous counters, while the lowercase is compact with lively curves, a two-storey "a", and a traditional "g" featuring a distinct ear. Numerals follow the same display-oriented contrast, mixing strong verticals with delicate connecting strokes.
Well suited to editorial headlines, magazine covers, and sophisticated branding where contrast and sharp serif detail can carry the visual identity. It can also work for book covers and pull quotes, and for short passages in high-quality settings where its fine hairlines remain clear.
The overall tone is polished and confident, blending classical bookish authority with a more theatrical, fashion-forward edge. Its sharp serifs and dramatic contrast create a sense of prestige and formality, while the flared endings add a crafted, slightly expressive character.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, display-leaning serif with classic roots: strong contrast and vertical poise for elegance, paired with flared terminals and sculpted details to add distinctive character in branding and editorial typography.
At text sizes the thin hairlines and tight internal details read as intentionally refined, suggesting best performance where print quality or screen resolution can preserve the delicate strokes. The rhythm in running text is energetic, with strong vertical emphasis and crisp punctuation that supports punchy headlines and sophisticated typographic layouts.
