A decorative serif with bold, sculpted letterforms and pronounced internal cut-ins that create a stencil-like, segmented impression. Strokes are mostly monolinear to moderately contrasted, with crisp, knife-edged terminals and distinctive wedge and crescent notches carved into bowls and joins. The geometry favors wide, open counters and sweeping curves, while verticals stay assertive and upright; the overall rhythm is lively due to the repeated negative-space bites that interrupt otherwise classical serif structures. Numerals and capitals share the same carved detailing, producing a consistent, high-impact texture in larger settings.
Best suited to headlines and short-form display typography where the carved details can remain clear. It works well for magazine and campaign titles, fashion and beauty branding, boutique packaging, and poster layouts where a bold, decorative serif voice is desired.
The font conveys a polished, editorial mood with a hint of vintage glamour, reading as theatrical and fashion-forward rather than traditional. Its sharp cutouts and sculptural serifs add drama and sophistication, suggesting curated luxury and design-led storytelling.
The design appears intended to reinterpret a classical serif framework with modern, ornamental cutouts—creating a memorable, high-contrast texture without relying on extreme stroke contrast. Its consistent notch motif suggests a focus on distinctive branding and striking display presence.
In text samples, the repeated interior notches create a strong patterning effect and can visually fuse at small sizes, making the design feel intentionally graphic. Round letters (like O/C/Q) emphasize the signature crescent cutouts most strongly, giving headlines a distinctive, brandable silhouette.
