This typeface shows a sculpted, high-contrast serif construction with pronounced thick-to-thin modulation and flared stroke endings that broaden into wedge-like terminals. Curves are smooth and generous while joins and apexes stay crisp, creating a chiselled, ink-trap-free silhouette that reads cleanly at display sizes. Serifs and terminals feel integrated with the stroke, often tapering to fine points or expanding into small triangular flares; counters are open and well-defined, and the overall rhythm is steady despite noticeable width variation across glyphs.
It performs best in headlines, magazine display typography, and brand marks where its contrast and sculpted terminals can be appreciated. It also suits posters, invitations, and premium packaging where a formal, high-end voice is desired; for longer text, it is likely most effective in larger sizes and with comfortable spacing.
The overall tone is refined and theatrical, combining classical bookish authority with a fashion-forward sharpness. The strong contrast and flaring terminals give it a luxurious, attention-grabbing presence that feels suited to premium and formal contexts.
The design intention appears to be a modern, high-impact serif that nods to classical forms while emphasizing dramatic contrast and flared, sculptural endings for contemporary editorial and branding use.
Uppercase forms feel especially statuesque, with broad bowls and emphatic verticals, while the lowercase maintains clear, traditional shapes and sturdy stems. Numerals follow the same contrast and flared-terminal logic, keeping a cohesive color and a distinctly display-oriented finish.
