A high-contrast serif with a crisp, polished surface and pronounced thick–thin transitions. Stems and joins are robust, while hairlines taper into sharp points and wedge-like terminals that flare subtly at the ends, giving the letters a sculpted, ink-trap-free look. Serifs and terminals feel chiseled rather than bracketed, and many curves end in fine, blade-like tips (notably in forms like S, a, e, and y), reinforcing a calligraphic, cut-metal rhythm. Proportions lean open and spacious with generous counters; numerals and capitals read confidently at display sizes, while the lowercase maintains clear differentiation and steady baseline behavior.
Best suited to headlines, magazine typography, and brand systems where contrast and sharp terminals can be showcased at larger sizes. It also fits premium packaging and logotype work, especially when you want a refined serif voice with a bit of edge and movement.
The tone is refined and theatrical: luxurious without being ornate, and modern in its sharpness. The dramatic contrast and flared endings evoke fashion editorials and premium branding, while the controlled geometry keeps it poised and contemporary rather than nostalgic.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern display serif that feels luxurious and incisive, using strong contrast and flared, tapered terminals to create a memorable silhouette. It prioritizes impact and elegance, aiming for high-end editorial and brand expression with a controlled, contemporary finish.
In text, the strong contrast creates lively sparkle and pronounced vertical emphasis, with distinctive pointed terminals that add character to word shapes. The overall impression is clean and curated, balancing classic serif structure with stylized, energetic stroke endings.
