A high-contrast serif with sculpted, flared stroke endings and crisp wedge-like terminals. Strokes transition quickly from hairlines to strong verticals, creating a pronounced vertical rhythm and a slightly calligraphic, chiseled feel. Serifs are sharp and tapered rather than blocky, and curves show clear modulation with a generally vertical stress. Proportions feel compact and stately, with lowercase forms that read clearly in display sizes and a distinctive, slightly angular cut to joins and terminals.
Best suited to headlines, deck copy, and short passages where its contrast and flared detailing can be appreciated. It works well for fashion and lifestyle editorial, premium branding, packaging, invitations, and poster typography, especially in high-resolution print or large on-screen settings.
The overall tone is luxurious and editorial, balancing classic bookish tradition with a more dramatic, fashion-forward sharpness. The strong contrast and pointed details give it a confident, high-end voice suited to attention-grabbing typography rather than quiet neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a premium, high-contrast serif voice with expressive flared endings—combining classical proportions with sharper, more contemporary cutting for impactful display typography.
In the sample text, the pronounced contrast and tight interior spaces make the texture look bold and glossy at larger sizes, while the finest hairlines and sharp terminals become the most sensitive features as size decreases. Numerals and capitals carry the same sculpted logic, reinforcing a cohesive, formal display presence.
