A high-contrast serif with sculpted, flaring stroke endings and crisp wedge-like serifs. Vertical stems are firm and straight while hairlines are extremely thin, creating a strong thick–thin rhythm throughout. Curves are taut and clean, with sharp joins and pointed apexes on letters like A, V, W, and Y; counters feel compact and neatly controlled. The lowercase shows compact proportions with a single-storey g and a teardrop-like ear on the r, while figures mix sturdy verticals with delicate connecting hairlines.
Best suited to display typography such as magazine headlines, mastheads, luxury branding, and elegant packaging. It can work for short pull quotes or section titles where its contrast and flared detailing can be appreciated; for longer reading, it will be more effective at larger sizes with sufficient line spacing.
The overall tone is polished and dramatic, projecting a couture, magazine-forward sophistication. Its sharp contrast and precise detailing feel formal and intentional, with a slightly theatrical edge that reads as premium rather than casual.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-end serif voice by combining classical proportions with pronounced contrast and distinctive flared terminals. The goal seems to be strong visual glamour and clarity in display settings, with letterforms that feel carved and confident on the page.
In text, the hairlines and flared endings create an animated sparkle, especially in pairs like n/m and in diagonals. The design favors crisp word shapes and strong headline presence over understated neutrality, and it benefits from comfortable sizes and spacing where the thin strokes can remain visible.
