This typeface is a high-contrast serif with pronounced flaring at stroke endings and wedge-like, bracketed serifs that sharpen into crisp points. Round letters show strong thick–thin modulation and a slightly compact, sculpted interior space, while verticals read steady and dominant. The lowercase has a moderately tall presence with sturdy stems, compact bowls, and sharply cut joins; details like the ear on “g” and the angled terminals on “a” and “c” contribute to a carved, calligraphic feel without becoming cursive. Numerals are weighty and high-contrast, with strong diagonals and assertive curves that match the capitals’ drama.
This font works best in display roles such as magazine headlines, posters, packaging, and brand marks where its high contrast and flared serifs can be appreciated. It can also support short editorial text—pull quotes, subheads, and title pages—where strong typographic color and a classic tone are desired.
The overall tone feels editorial and classical, with a dramatic, fashion-forward crispness. Its sharp, flared finishing strokes and dense black shapes give it a confident, slightly theatrical voice suited to headline-driven typography.
The design appears intended to merge traditional serif structure with sharper, more sculpted finishing, creating a refined display face that feels both classic and contemporary. The flared terminals and pronounced contrast suggest an emphasis on impactful, elegant typography for titles and editorial settings.
In text, the letterforms create a lively rhythm through alternating thick stems and hairline connections, producing sparkle in counters and joins. The flared endings add emphasis at word edges, which increases presence and authority, especially at larger sizes.
