This typeface is a high-contrast serif with a pronounced thick–thin rhythm and crisp, tapering terminals. Serifs are sharp and sculpted, with subtle flaring and pointed wedge-like finishes that emphasize verticality. Round letters show a calligraphic modulation and a slightly high contrast axis, while capitals are stately and evenly proportioned with generous internal space. Lowercase forms keep a traditional structure (two-storey a, compact e) and maintain clean joins, producing a refined, print-like texture at display sizes.
Best suited to display settings such as magazine headlines, mastheads, brand marks, and premium packaging where its contrast and sharp serifs can remain clear. It also works well for short editorial pull quotes and titles where a refined, authoritative voice is desired.
The overall tone is polished and elegant, with a dramatic, high-fashion presence. Its sharp finishing and strong contrast suggest sophistication and formality, while the calligraphic modulation adds a cultured, literary feel.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, editorial interpretation of classic high-contrast serif letterforms, prioritizing elegance, impact, and a polished page color. The flared finishing and razor-like serifs are geared toward premium, attention-grabbing typography rather than utilitarian text settings.
In the sample text, the dense black strokes and hairline connections create a lively sparkle that rewards comfortable point sizes and generous spacing. Numerals match the letterforms with the same contrast and crisp serif treatment, reading as classic and editorial rather than technical.
