A high-contrast serif with sculpted, wedge-like terminals and sharply cut joins. Strokes alternate between hairline thins and weighty verticals, producing a crisp, chiseled texture in words. Serifs are tapered and often triangular, with a slightly flared, engraved feel rather than blunt slabs. The forms are compact and strongly modeled, with rounded bowls that meet stems in tight, angular transitions and a generally upright, steady axis.
Best suited for display typography such as magazine headlines, poster titles, book covers, and brand marks that benefit from sharp, high-contrast detail. It can work for short blocks of text in larger settings where its carved terminals and contrast remain clear, but it will be most effective when given space and size to show its detailing.
The overall tone is theatrical and editorial, combining classical serif authority with a stylized, almost carved sharpness. It feels formal and attention-grabbing, suited to headlines where contrast and distinctive terminals can carry personality. The rhythm reads confident and slightly aggressive, emphasizing impact over quiet neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional serif foundation with heightened contrast and distinctive wedge serifs to create a memorable, premium voice. Its sculpted terminals and tightened joins suggest an aim toward dramatic, headline-forward typography rather than purely utilitarian reading text.
In the alphabet and text sample, the most distinctive signature is the repeated use of pointed wedge serifs and knife-like interior notches, which creates a sparkling pattern at larger sizes. Counters stay relatively open despite the heavy main strokes, helping keep shapes recognizable, while the contrast makes small-size reproduction more sensitive. Numerals and capitals appear especially emphatic, with strong vertical presence and crisp finishing details.
