A high-contrast serif with sculpted, flaring stroke endings that read like wedge-shaped serifs rather than flat slabs. The verticals are sturdy while hairlines snap to very fine points, creating crisp interior apertures and a lively thick–thin rhythm. Curves are taut and slightly angular in places, with pointed terminals and notched joins that give many letters a cut, faceted feel. Proportions are generally compact with strong capitals and relatively small counters, and the numerals and punctuation carry the same sharp, chiseled modulation for a consistent voice.
Best suited to large-size typography where its razor-thin hairlines and flared endings can be appreciated—editorial headlines, fashion and beauty branding, posters, and high-impact campaign lines. It can also work for short pull quotes or section openers where a dramatic, premium serif voice is desired.
The overall tone is assertive and theatrical, balancing classical refinement with a slightly edgy, fashion-forward sharpness. Its high-contrast, flared detailing conveys sophistication and intensity, making it feel premium and attention-grabbing rather than neutral or purely text-oriented.
This font appears designed to deliver a modernized, sculptural take on a classic high-contrast serif, using flared terminals and sharp details to amplify elegance and punch in display settings.
The design favors strong silhouettes and clean word shapes at display sizes; the finest hairlines and sharp terminals are a defining feature that will become more delicate as size decreases. The character set shown maintains consistent contrast and terminal treatment across upper- and lowercase, with particularly prominent diagonal and curved forms that add motion to headlines.
