A sculpted serif with stout, poster-like stems and sharply carved terminals. Many joins and curves are defined by triangular cut-ins and notch-like counters, creating an ink-trap/engraved impression rather than smooth, continuous bowls. Serifs read as wedgey and integrated into the strokes, with frequent sharp apexes and chiseled diagonals (notably in letters like A, V, W, X). Round forms (O, Q, o, e) show distinctive sliced apertures and internal negative shapes that emphasize a geometric, cut-paper rhythm. Numerals echo the same vocabulary with dramatic incisions and tight inner spaces, producing a cohesive, decorative texture in both display and short text settings.
Best suited to headlines, cover lines, and large-scale editorial typography where the carved details can be appreciated. It can work well for branding and packaging that aims for a premium, fashion-forward look, and for posters or cultural/event materials that benefit from a distinctive serif voice. In longer passages, it will be most comfortable at generous sizes and spacing.
The overall tone is high-fashion and editorial, with a dramatic, art-directed voice. Its carved details and sharp negative spaces add a slightly mischievous, avant-garde character that feels curated and boutique rather than utilitarian. The texture reads confident and upscale, leaning toward statement-making headlines.
The font appears designed to reinterpret a classic serif skeleton with modern, sculptural cut-ins that add identity and texture. The goal seems to be a display serif that feels both refined and unconventional, using consistent notch motifs to create a recognizable signature across the alphabet and numerals.
The design’s signature is the consistent use of triangular notches and tapered cuts, which adds sparkle at large sizes but can make small counters feel tight. The rhythm is compact and dense, with a strong black silhouette broken by crisp internal cutouts that create a distinctive pattern across words.
