A high-contrast serif with sculpted, flaring stroke endings and sharp, wedge-like terminals that create a carved, calligraphic feel. The design favors broad vertical stems and tapered joins, with pronounced modulation that produces strong black-and-white rhythm at display sizes. Curves are generous and polished, while many letters show pointed beaks and swept terminals that add motion without leaning into italics. Uppercase forms read stately and monumental; the lowercase is compact and punchy with distinctive, sometimes swashed details (notably in letters like g, y, and f), and figures are sturdy with similarly tapered finishes.
Best suited to headlines, covers, and short bursts of text where the high-contrast modulation and flared terminals can be appreciated. It’s a strong choice for fashion and culture editorials, brand marks and wordmarks, premium packaging, and theatrical or event posters that benefit from a bold, sculptural serif voice.
The overall tone is luxurious and dramatic, balancing classical letterform cues with a showy, contemporary edge. It feels suited to attention-grabbing typography—confident, stylized, and a bit theatrical—where sharp terminals and flared strokes can read as intentional ornament rather than texture.
The design appears intended as a statement serif: combining classic proportions with exaggerated contrast and flaring terminals to deliver a refined but attention-forward display style. Its distinctive terminals and swashy touches suggest an aim for memorability and expressive personality in branding and editorial typography.
The strong contrast and intricate terminals create a lively sparkle in headlines, but the same details can visually crowd when set tightly or at smaller sizes. Spacing in the samples looks comfortable for display; allowing generous tracking helps preserve the crisp inner counters and the sharp terminal shapes.
