This serif face features a sculptural, high-contrast build with hairline joins and thickened main strokes that flare subtly at terminals. Serifs are sharp and tapered rather than blocky, giving the outlines a chiseled, calligraphic finish. The uppercase shows generous proportions and open counters, while the lowercase keeps a relatively modest x-height with lively, varied stroke rhythm. Curves (C, G, O, S) are drawn with smooth, tensioned bowls and thin connecting strokes, and diagonals (K, V, W, X) emphasize crisp, knife-like hairlines. Numerals follow the same contrast and elegance, with a distinctive, airy “4” and rounded “8/9” that read as display-oriented.
Well-suited to headlines, pull quotes, mastheads, and cover typography where contrast and sharp finishing can be appreciated. It can also elevate branding systems for fashion, beauty, hospitality, and cultural institutions, especially when used with ample whitespace and careful tracking.
The overall tone is sophisticated and theatrical, balancing classical bookish heritage with a contemporary fashion sensibility. The extreme contrast and razor terminals create a sense of luxury and precision, making the design feel premium and attention-grabbing without becoming ornate.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern high-fashion serif with classical proportions, leveraging extreme contrast and flared terminals to create a distinctive, premium voice for display typography.
Spacing and silhouette suggest it is happiest at medium to large sizes, where the hairlines and tapered details can remain intact. The flared finishing on stems and terminals adds warmth and motion compared to strictly bracketed or purely Didone-like serifs.
