A decorative serif with sharply flared, wedge-like terminals and frequent triangular cut-ins that give strokes a carved, incised feel. The letterforms rely on bold, continuous verticals and smooth, rounded bowls, with many joins resolved as pointed notches rather than soft transitions. Proportions skew high-waisted and slightly condensed in places, while counters stay relatively open for a display-oriented rhythm. Numerals and capitals follow the same angular terminal logic, creating a consistent, chiseled silhouette across the set.
Best suited to headlines, magazine-style editorial typography, posters, and branding where the distinctive carved terminals can be appreciated. It can also work for packaging and event materials that benefit from a bold, high-fashion voice, while longer passages may feel intense due to the constant angular detailing.
The overall tone is stylish and dramatic, combining classic serif cues with a modern, cut-paper or engraved edge. It feels couture-adjacent and stage-ready—confident, slightly mischievous, and designed to attract attention at larger sizes.
The design appears intended to reinterpret a traditional serif through an incised, wedge-terminal construction, prioritizing striking silhouettes and a memorable texture in display sizes. Its consistent cut-in motif suggests a deliberate decorative system aimed at adding drama without relying on high contrast.
The repeated use of sharp interior cutouts (especially where curves meet stems) creates a distinctive sparkle in text, producing strong word shapes and a lively texture. Spacing appears tuned for headlines, where the pointed terminals and notches read as deliberate details rather than artifacts.
