A high-contrast serif with sculpted, flared stroke endings and sharp wedge-like terminals. Vertical stems read sturdy and dark, while hairlines are extremely thin, producing a lively, calligraphic stress without leaning. Serifs are compact and bracketed, with tapered entry/exit strokes that give counters a slightly pinched, chiseled feel. Proportions are title-oriented with a relatively modest x-height, tight apertures, and strong thick–thin rhythm that creates a crisp, fashion-forward texture in text.
Best suited to headlines, magazine settings, and branding where high contrast and sharp terminals can be appreciated at larger sizes. It works well for luxury packaging, cultural/event posters, and title typography that benefits from a refined, attention-grabbing texture rather than continuous long-form reading.
The overall tone is confident and dramatic, balancing classical bookish cues with a more editorial, runway-like sharpness. Its contrast and pointed terminals suggest refinement and ceremony, while the dense black strokes add authority and impact.
The design appears intended to deliver a modernized classical serif voice: crisp, contrast-driven letterforms with flared, sculptural endings that amplify elegance and drama. It prioritizes impact and sophistication in display contexts while keeping traditional serif structure for familiarity.
Spacing and rhythm favor display sizes: the thin joins and delicate hairlines create striking sparkle, but they also make fine details more prominent. Numerals and capitals carry a formal, engraved character, and the lowercase maintains a stately cadence with pronounced contrast and tapered terminals.
