A high-contrast italic serif with energetic, calligraphic construction and flared stroke endings that broaden into the terminals and serifs. The forms lean strongly, with tapered entry strokes and thick, sculpted main stems that create a pronounced black-and-white rhythm. Serifs read as bracketed and wedge-like rather than blocky, and many letters show subtle swelling where curves meet stems, reinforcing the flared character. Proportions are roomy and horizontally generous, with rounded counters (notably in O, Q, o, e) and lively joins; lowercase includes a two-storey g with a prominent ear and a single-storey a with a sharp, angled top. Numerals follow the same italic, high-contrast logic, with crisp diagonals and tapered terminals.
Best suited to display applications such as magazine headlines, cultural posters, book covers, and premium packaging where its contrast and motion can be appreciated. It can also work for short subheads or pull quotes, especially when ample tracking and generous line spacing are available.
The overall tone is theatrical and confident, pairing classical serif cues with a fashion-forward slant. Its sharp contrasts and sweeping italic motion suggest refinement and urgency at the same time, giving text an upscale, headline-driven presence.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-impact italic serif with flared, calligraphic details—prioritizing expressive silhouette, contrast, and elegance for attention-grabbing typography.
In continuous text the strong contrast and flared endings create a shimmering texture that favors larger sizes, where the tapered strokes and terminal shapes stay clear. The italic angle is substantial, and the letterforms maintain a consistent, lively cadence across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
