A sculptural serif with pronounced contrast and flared stroke endings that read like wedge-shaped, tapering terminals. Stems are sturdy and upright, while joins and curves create sharp, calligraphic inflections that produce a lively, slightly irregular rhythm across words. Serifs and terminals tend to broaden into triangular forms, giving letters a chiseled, cut-from-metal feel; counters stay relatively compact in the heavier forms, emphasizing strong black shapes. The overall texture is bold and authoritative, with distinctive modulation visible in both capitals and lowercase.
Best suited to display sizes where the flared terminals and contrast can be appreciated—magazine headlines, poster titles, brand marks, and packaging systems that want a refined but assertive serif voice. It can also work for short subheads or pull quotes, though its strong stroke modulation may feel dense for long continuous text at smaller sizes.
The tone is dramatic and cultivated, mixing classic serif authority with a fashionable, display-forward edge. Its sharp flares and high-contrast modeling feel ceremonious and premium, lending an editorial sophistication that can also read slightly gothic or theatrical depending on setting.
The design appears intended to deliver a commanding, contemporary display serif rooted in classic forms, using flared terminals and strong contrast to create memorable silhouettes and a premium, editorial presence.
In the sample text, the strong contrast and flared details create a striking word silhouette, especially in round letters and diagonals. The numerals share the same cut, tapered logic, helping headlines feel cohesive across letters and figures.
