A high-contrast serif with crisp hairlines and weighty vertical stems, combining sharp wedge-like finishing strokes with rounded, swelling bowls. The letterforms feel intentionally sculpted: counters are generous, curves are smooth and taut, and terminals often taper to fine points that heighten the dramatic rhythm. Overall spacing reads open for a display serif, and the silhouette is assertive, with strong black shapes balanced by delicate connecting strokes.
Best suited for headlines, magazine covers, posters, and branded typography where a strong, stylish serif voice is needed. It can work well for fashion, culture, and luxury-adjacent identities, as well as pull quotes and short subheads where its contrast and tapered details remain clear. For extended small-size text, it will likely be most effective when used sparingly and with comfortable leading due to the delicate hairlines.
The font projects a confident, theatrical tone with a distinctly editorial voice. Its dramatic contrast and sculpted curves create a sense of elegance with a slightly playful, punchy energy, suited to statements rather than neutrality.
The design appears aimed at delivering high-impact typography where contrast and silhouette do most of the work. It prioritizes striking shapes and refined detailing to create a premium, attention-grabbing presence in larger sizes while keeping classic serif conventions intact.
The figures match the overall high-contrast, sculptural feel, with bold numerals that read cleanly at display sizes. Several glyphs show pronounced tapering and sharp apexes, creating a distinctive rhythm across words in the sample text.
