A high-contrast serif with sharp, tapered joins and pronounced flare where strokes terminate. Stems are smooth and upright, with thin hairlines that stay delicate and crisp against robust verticals, producing a distinctly chiseled rhythm. Serifs read as wedge-like and lightly bracketed rather than blocky, and many letters show subtly asymmetric, calligraphic stress in bowls and curves. Proportions are moderately tall with open counters, and the figures follow the same contrast pattern with elegant, sweeping curves and fine terminals.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and brand marks where its contrast and flared terminals can be appreciated. It works well for magazine/editorial design, luxury or beauty branding, packaging, and posters, and can also serve as an accent face paired with a quieter text serif or sans.
The overall tone is polished and dramatic, balancing luxury cues with a slightly expressive, hand-influenced edge. It feels editorial and fashion-forward, with enough sharpness and contrast to signal sophistication and confidence.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-fashion Didone-like impact while differentiating itself through flared stroke endings and subtly calligraphic shaping. The goal is a refined display serif that reads premium and expressive without becoming overly ornate.
In text, the extreme contrast creates strong sparkle and a lively texture, especially around thin cross-strokes and hairline links. Spacing appears comfortably set for display and short-form reading, while the flared endings and wedge terminals add a distinctive signature that stands out at larger sizes.
