A high-contrast serif with crisp, tapered joins and subtly flared stroke terminals that give stems a carved, chiseled feel. The design pairs hairline horizontals with robust verticals, producing a dramatic black–white rhythm and a distinctly editorial texture in text. Serifs are sharp and lightly bracketed in places, with angular cuts and wedge-like finishing that show through in both capitals and lowercase. Curves are smooth but tensioned, and the overall construction feels controlled and precise rather than soft or rounded.
Well suited to editorial headlines, fashion or culture magazines, and premium brand identities where contrast and refinement are desired. It can also work effectively for book covers and poster typography, especially when set at larger sizes to preserve the delicacy of hairlines.
The tone is elegant and theatrical, leaning toward luxury and print sophistication. Its pronounced contrast and pointed details create a sense of poise and formality, while the flared endings add a slightly expressive, calligraphic edge.
The letterforms appear designed to deliver a modern, high-fashion interpretation of a classic serif: maximizing contrast and sharp finishing while using flared terminals to add sculptural character and a distinctive printed presence.
In the sample text, the strong vertical emphasis and hairline connections produce a lively sparkle that reads best when given room—larger sizes or generous leading. The numerals echo the same contrast and sharp terminal language, maintaining a cohesive, polished voice across text and display settings.
