This serif typeface shows pronounced stroke contrast with crisp, tapered serifs and subtly flared terminals that broaden as strokes finish. Letterforms are upright with a vertical, formal stance, and many curves end in pointed or teardrop-like details that give the contours a sculpted feel. Counters are generally open and well-defined, while joins and diagonals remain clean and decisive, creating a steady rhythm in both capitals and lowercase. Numerals and punctuation match the same sharp, high-contrast drawing, supporting a cohesive text-and-display look.
It suits magazine headlines, book covers, cultural branding, and other applications where a refined serif voice is needed. In text, it works best where generous size, leading, and careful composition can preserve the delicate hairlines and maintain an even typographic color.
The overall tone is elegant and editorial, combining classical book-type cues with a slightly theatrical sharpness. It feels authoritative and polished, with enough drama in the contrast and terminals to read as premium and intentional rather than neutral.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a high-contrast serif with sculpted, flared finishing strokes—aimed at producing a distinctive, premium texture in display sizes while remaining orderly enough for extended editorial setting.
In larger settings the pointed terminals and tapered serifs become a defining signature, adding sparkle and texture to headlines. The heavier vertical strokes and fine hairlines create strong light–dark patterning, so line breaks and spacing will play an important role in maintaining even color in paragraphs.
