A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation, crisp hairline serifs, and a generally vertical, poster-like stance. Curves are tightly drawn with sharp transitions into stems, and several letters show teardrop/ball terminals (notably in the lowercase) that add a sculpted, display-oriented finish. Proportions run on the broad side with generous counters, while spacing and rhythm feel intentionally bold and emphatic rather than quiet and texty. Numerals follow the same contrast model, with round forms that carry strong black-and-white patterning.
Best suited for headlines, decks, pull quotes, and other display settings where its contrast and sculpted details can read clearly. It fits magazine and editorial design, fashion and beauty branding, and upscale packaging or invitations where a refined, high-impact serif is desired.
The overall tone is polished and dramatic, evoking luxury editorial typography and classic high-fashion mastheads. Its strong contrast and sharp details give it a sense of confidence and formality, with a slightly theatrical flair from the rounded terminals and pronounced curves.
The design appears aimed at delivering a contemporary take on classic high-contrast serifs: bold, elegant, and attention-grabbing, with enough distinctive terminal shaping to feel branded in display use. The consistent contrast model across caps, lowercase, and figures suggests an intention to create a cohesive, luxurious typographic voice for prominent, short-to-medium length text.
In longer sample lines, the dark weight and high contrast create a striking texture that favors larger sizes; fine serifs and hairlines become key visual accents. The lowercase shows a distinctive, slightly calligraphic flavor in terminals and joins, which helps differentiate it from purely austere modern serifs.
