A high-contrast serif with a strong rightward slant and broad proportions, it pairs heavy, smooth main strokes with very fine hairlines. The serifs are crisp and sharp, often tapering into pointed, calligraphic-looking terminals, and the joins feel carved rather than purely mechanical. Counters are generous and the rhythm is energetic, with sweeping curves and a distinctive, slightly swashy finish in several forms, producing an assertive display texture.
Best suited to headlines, magazine and poster typography, brand marks, packaging, and short pull quotes where its contrast and italic energy can read clearly. It can also work for titles in cultural or lifestyle contexts, especially when set with ample size and spacing to preserve the hairline details.
This typeface conveys a dramatic, fashion-forward tone with a confident, editorial presence. Its pronounced contrast and lively italic movement give it a sense of sophistication and flair, while the sculpted curves add a slightly playful, theatrical edge.
The design appears intended to deliver high-impact typography that reads as refined and contemporary, emphasizing contrast, slanted momentum, and sharp finishing details. It prioritizes character and presence over quiet neutrality, aiming to stand out in prominent settings.
The numerals and several lowercase forms show distinctive, curled terminals and pronounced stroke modulation, giving the set a cohesive, stylized identity. Because the thinnest strokes get very fine, it will benefit from sufficient size and careful reproduction where contrast is preserved.
