This typeface is a high-contrast serif with sculpted, flaring terminals and sharply cut wedge-like serifs. Strokes transition from hairline-thin joins to heavy verticals, creating a crisp, chiseled rhythm across both capitals and lowercase. Curves are generously drawn with tight, tapered entry and exit points, and counters stay fairly open despite the strong weight in the main stems. The forms feel slightly calligraphic in their stress, with pointed beaks and refined tapering on letters like a, c, e, and s, and assertive diagonals in V, W, and X.
Best suited for headlines, magazine titling, pull quotes, and brand marks where contrast and detail can read clearly. It can also work for short introductions or deck text at comfortable sizes, particularly in refined print or high-resolution digital contexts where the hairlines won’t be lost.
The overall tone is formal and attention-grabbing, with a polished, editorial presence. Its sharp contrast and flared details add a sense of prestige and theatricality, leaning toward fashion, culture, and premium branding rather than utilitarian text settings.
The design appears intended to combine classic serif proportions with more expressive, flared finishing to heighten impact. Its emphasis on sharp tapering and sculpted terminals suggests a display-first goal: delivering elegance and authority while remaining visually distinctive in prominent settings.
In the text sample, the strong thick–thin pattern produces lively texture and a pronounced vertical emphasis, especially in dense lines. Numerals appear similarly high-contrast and display-oriented, with elegant curves and tapered terminals that match the letterforms.
