A high-contrast serif with sculpted, flaring stems that broaden into tapered terminals and sharp wedge-like serifs. Vertical strokes dominate with hairline-thin joins and cross-strokes, creating a crisp, glossy rhythm. Letterforms are compact and slightly condensed in feel, with tightly pinched apertures and lively curves—especially in round letters—balanced by firm, straight-sided structure. Uppercase proportions are stately and stable, while the lowercase shows a traditional serif construction with a moderate x-height and pronounced stroke modulation.
Best suited to headlines, magazine typography, and brand identities where contrast and elegance are assets. It will shine in large sizes for titles, pull quotes, packaging, and poster work, and can work for short text passages when ample size and leading preserve the hairline detail.
The overall tone is polished and fashion-forward, with a dramatic, editorial sharpness that reads as premium and deliberate. Its strong contrast and flared detailing add a sense of ceremony and sophistication, evoking classic print refinement with a modern edge.
The design appears intended as a contemporary high-contrast serif for display and editorial settings, prioritizing dramatic stroke modulation and flared, sculptural finishes to create a premium, attention-commanding voice.
Spacing appears set up for display impact: counters are relatively tight and the darks gather quickly in text, producing a bold texture even at moderate sizes. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with elegant curves and thin connecting strokes that reinforce the font’s refined, attention-grabbing character.
