A striking serif with sharp, tapered terminals and strongly flared stroke endings that create a crisp, sculpted silhouette. The letterforms show pronounced thick–thin modulation and a calligraphic stress, with wedge-like serifs that bite into the counters rather than sitting as flat slabs. Capitals feel stately and slightly condensed in rhythm, while the lowercase is compact with tight apertures and lively details, including a two-storey “a” and a double-storey “g” with a prominent ear. Numerals follow the same dramatic contrast and pointed finishing, giving the set a cohesive, display-forward texture.
Best suited to magazine headlines, book or album covers, posters, and branding systems that need an upscale, attention-grabbing serif. It can work for pull quotes and short-form editorial typography where its crisp contrast and flared terminals can be appreciated without overwhelming the page.
The font conveys a polished, fashion-forward tone with a sense of drama and precision. Its sharp serifs and glossy contrast suggest luxury, prestige, and curated editorial style rather than casual utility.
The design appears intended to deliver a dramatic, high-fashion serif voice by combining strong contrast with flared, chiseled endings and tightly controlled proportions. Its emphasis is on impact and refinement, providing a distinctive editorial texture for prominent typographic roles.
In paragraph-like samples the dense color and assertive serifs create strong vertical rhythm and impactful word shapes, especially in headlines. The spiky terminals and narrow openings add personality but can make long text feel intense at smaller sizes, favoring larger settings and shorter lines.
