A high-contrast serif with sculpted, bracketed serifs and sharp wedge-like terminals. The letterforms combine broad, dark main strokes with very fine hairlines, creating a crisp, inky color at display sizes. Curves are generously rounded but tightly controlled, with small apertures and pointed joins that add tension (notably in diagonals and crotches). Proportions lean expansive, with broad capitals, ample bowls, and a relatively moderate x-height for the lowercase; numerals follow the same contrast model with refined hairline detailing.
Best suited to headlines, decks, pull quotes, magazine and book covers, and brand marks where contrast and elegance are assets. It also works for short-form editorial typography (subheads, intros, captions at comfortable sizes) when reproduction can preserve fine hairlines.
The overall tone is polished and theatrical, balancing classical bookish cues with a fashion-forward, headline-ready intensity. Its pronounced contrast and sharpened details read as premium and assertive rather than quiet or utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, high-contrast serif voice for display typography, combining traditional serif structure with sharpened detailing to maximize impact and sophistication in prominent settings.
The rhythm in text is driven by alternating thick verticals and hairline connections, producing a distinctly engraved, editorial texture. The design favors crisp joins and pointed terminals, which heighten sparkle and definition but can appear delicate in small settings.
