A high-contrast serif with crisp, tapered hairlines and weighty vertical stems. Strokes often widen into subtly flared, wedge-like terminals, giving the serifs a sculpted, sharp-ended presence rather than a purely bracketed look. Counters are compact and controlled, with a slightly condensed, vertical rhythm that reads cleanly at display sizes. The lowercase shows lively, calligraphic influence in the joins and terminals, while maintaining consistent alignment and a polished, print-oriented texture.
Best used for headlines, magazine titling, and high-impact editorial settings where the high contrast and flared terminals can remain crisp. It also suits branding, packaging, and campaign work that needs a luxe, fashion-forward serif. For long passages, it will be most comfortable when set with generous size and spacing to preserve the fine hairlines.
The overall tone is elegant and assertive—suited to premium, editorial typography where contrast and silhouette do the talking. It conveys a fashionable, contemporary-classic feel: refined and poised, with just enough sharpness to feel modern and attention-grabbing.
The design appears intended as a contemporary display serif that amplifies classic contrast with flared, sculptural terminals for a distinctive silhouette. It prioritizes elegance and impact, aiming to deliver a premium, editorial voice with sharp detail and strong vertical emphasis.
Round letters (like O/C/G) show strong thick–thin modulation and crisp entry/exit points, while diagonals (V/W/X) feel angular and taut. Numerals follow the same display-driven contrast, with pronounced curves and fine connecting strokes that emphasize sophistication over neutrality.
