A high-contrast serif with a strong vertical axis, thick main stems, and extremely thin hairlines that sharpen into fine, flat serifs. The letterforms are wide-set with ample interior counters, and many joins and terminals show crisp, triangular cut-ins that read like ink-trap notches or chiseled facets. Curves are taut and sculpted, with ball-like terminals appearing in several lowercase forms, and overall rhythm is assertive and display-oriented rather than texty. Numerals follow the same theatrical contrast, with prominent weight jumps and distinctive interior carving.
Best suited to large-scale settings such as headlines, magazine and fashion layouts, posters, and premium branding where its contrast and razor hairlines can be appreciated. It also works well for logos, packaging, and short, emphatic typographic statements where the distinctive notched construction can carry the identity.
The font projects an editorial, fashion-forward voice—dramatic, polished, and slightly baroque in its detailing. Its sharp hairlines and sculpted notches lend a luxe, high-impact tone suited to attention-grabbing typography rather than quiet reading.
The design appears intended as a modern, high-impact display serif that amplifies contrast and refinement while adding a recognizable carved-notched motif for signature personality. It prioritizes visual drama, crispness, and editorial sophistication over neutral, long-form readability.
In the sample text, the thin strokes and hairline serifs become the defining character at large sizes, creating sparkle and a crisp black–white interplay. The notched detailing is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, giving the design a branded, signature texture that can feel intentionally ornamental when set tightly.
