A high-contrast serif with pronounced vertical stress and razor-thin hairlines set against weighty main stems. Serifs read as sharp, wedge-like terminals with minimal bracketing, giving forms a carved, faceted feel. Counters tend to be open and tall, with a slightly wide footprint and generous internal space in rounds. Curves transition quickly into straight stems, and several joins and terminals show crisp, calligraphic tension that emphasizes the thick–thin rhythm. Numerals and capitals appear sturdy and display-oriented, with thin cross-strokes and elegant, tapered finishing details.
Best suited for headlines, decks, pull quotes, magazine covers, and brand wordmarks where its contrast and sharp finishing can be appreciated. It can work for short passages in high-quality print or large on-screen sizes, particularly in layouts that give it ample breathing room and avoid overly small rendering.
The overall tone is polished and theatrical—equal parts couture elegance and editorial authority. The extreme contrast and incisive serifs convey luxury, sophistication, and a deliberate sense of drama, while the upright posture keeps it formal and composed.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classic high-contrast serif: bold, attention-grabbing letterforms with couture-like sharpness, optimized for expressive display typography and premium editorial settings.
At larger sizes the hairlines and sharp terminals create a striking sparkle and strong black–white patterning; in denser text the delicate horizontals and thin curves can visually recede, making spacing and size choices especially important. The design shows a pronounced display rhythm, with attention-grabbing silhouettes and a slightly flamboyant, fashion-forward cadence.
