A high-contrast serif with strongly tapered strokes that swell into subtly flared, bracketed endings. Curves are clean and expansive, while joins and terminals feel carved rather than purely mechanical, giving the letterforms a sculpted, calligraphic rhythm. Proportions lean slightly condensed in many capitals, with generous counters and clear, well-separated shapes; the overall texture on the page alternates between hairline thins and confident verticals for a lively, elegant color.
Best suited to display and larger text where the high contrast and delicate thins can shine—magazine headlines, book and album covers, cultural posters, and premium brand marks. It can also work for short editorial subheads or pull quotes when printed or rendered at sizes that preserve the hairline details.
The font conveys a poised, editorial tone—formal without being stiff. Its sharp contrast and flared finishing strokes add a sense of drama and sophistication, suggesting classic print traditions with a contemporary crispness.
The design appears intended to blend classical serif construction with flared, calligraphic finishing for a more expressive, sculptural presence. It prioritizes elegance and visual rhythm over neutrality, aiming for memorable, high-impact typography in prominent text roles.
Uppercase forms read stately and structured, while the lowercase introduces a softer, more human cadence through curved shoulders and tapered entries. Numerals follow the same contrast pattern and feel well-suited to display settings, with clear silhouettes and slightly stylized curves.
