A high-contrast serif with a strong vertical rhythm, thick main stems, and very thin hairlines and crossbars. Serifs are sharp and finely tapered, giving the edges a crisp, chiseled finish rather than a soft, bracketed feel. Uppercase forms are broad and stately with prominent weight concentration on verticals, while the lowercase shows compact bowls and sturdy stems, keeping the texture dark and even in larger settings. Numerals follow the same contrast logic, with bold bodies and delicate internal strokes that emphasize a refined, engraved look.
Well suited to editorial headlines, cover lines, and large typographic statements where its contrast and crisp serifs can read as intentional detail. It also fits premium branding and packaging that benefit from an elegant, high-impact serif with a classic sensibility.
The overall tone is formal and upscale, with a dramatic, fashion-forward presence. Its pronounced contrast and sharp detailing convey authority and elegance, leaning toward a classic editorial voice rather than a casual or utilitarian one.
The design appears intended as a display-oriented, high-contrast serif that prioritizes elegance and dramatic vertical stress. It aims to deliver a refined, authoritative voice with sharp finishing details and a dark, impactful typographic color.
In text, the dense color and fine hairlines create a punchy headline texture with noticeable sparkle where thin strokes catch the eye. The sharp serifing and high contrast suggest best performance at display sizes where the delicate strokes can remain clear.
