This typeface features a striking thick–thin rhythm with razor hairlines and bold, ink-trap-like joins that create triangular cut-ins at curves and terminals. Serifs are sharp and understated, with many strokes finishing in tapered points rather than flat endings, giving letters a drawn, pen-led feel while still reading as a serif display face. Proportions are tall and elegant with small lowercase bodies relative to the capitals, and bowls and counters tend to be compact, emphasizing the high-contrast silhouette. The numerals echo the same sculpted contrast, with distinctive, stylized shapes (notably the 2, 4, and 8) that read as decorative rather than utilitarian.
Best suited to display typography such as magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, boutique logos, posters, and premium packaging. It also works well for short editorial accents like section titles, pull quotes, and cover lines where its sculpted contrast can be appreciated.
The overall tone is glamorous and high-drama, reminiscent of fashion titling and luxury editorial layouts. Its sharp hairlines and sudden weight shifts convey precision and sophistication, while the slightly whimsical, drawn terminals add a hint of personality and flair.
The design appears intended to deliver a luxurious, editorial serif voice with a hand-drawn edge—combining calligraphic tapering and sharp detailing to create memorable, high-impact letterforms for statement-setting typography.
At larger sizes the crisp hairlines and carved-in joins become a key visual feature, but in dense settings those delicate connections may visually recede, making spacing and size choices important. The sample text shows strong presence in headlines and pull quotes, with distinctive letterforms that prioritize character over neutrality.
