A high-contrast serif with slender hairlines and stronger vertical stems that subtly swell into wedge-like, flared endings. Serifs read as sharp and tapered rather than blocky, giving strokes a carved, calligraphic finish. Proportions are condensed, with relatively tall caps and a controlled, even rhythm across words; counters stay open and the axis appears mostly vertical. Lowercase forms are compact with a steady, moderate x-height, and the numerals follow the same contrasty, upright logic for a cohesive text-and-display palette.
Best suited to headlines, pull quotes, magazine typography, and book or journal titling where high contrast and sharp detailing can be appreciated. It can also support short passages and refined branding work when set with sufficient size and spacing to preserve its delicate hairlines.
The overall tone is polished and slightly dramatic, combining classical bookish manners with a fashion/editorial crispness. Its sharp serifs and bright contrast create a sense of authority and sophistication, suited to premium, carefully typeset contexts.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, high-contrast serif voice with flared, wedge-like finishing that nods to calligraphic construction. It aims for a premium, editorial presence—balancing classical proportions with a more incisive, contemporary sharpness.
In text, the thin connecting strokes and pointed serif treatment produce a lively sparkle and clear word shapes, while the condensed width increases density and emphasis. The design’s stroke endings and joins feel intentional and sculpted, reading more refined than utilitarian.
