A stylized serif with sharp, wedge-like terminals and sculpted joins that read as incised cut-ins rather than conventional bracketed serifs. Strokes are generally sturdy and even, but the letterforms are defined by abrupt triangular notches, tapered tips, and intermittent internal cutaways that create a distinctive, chiseled silhouette. Counters tend toward rounded-oval forms (notably in O, Q, and numerals), while horizontals and diagonals end in crisp points, giving the design a faceted, constructed feel. Spacing and rhythm feel display-oriented, with pronounced shapes that remain consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited for headlines, mastheads, posters, and brand marks where the cut-in details and pointed terminals can be appreciated. It can also work for short deck copy or pull quotes in editorial layouts, but the decorative sculpting is most effective when given generous size and spacing.
The tone is bold and design-forward, suggesting editorial polish with a theatrical edge. Its sharp terminals and carved details evoke luxury branding and art-direction typography, balancing classic serif expectations with a distinctly modern, decorative twist.
Likely designed to reinterpret a traditional serif skeleton through carved, wedge-terminal gestures, creating a recognizable signature for display typography. The consistent use of sharp cutaways and flared tips suggests an emphasis on memorable silhouette and high-impact texture in titles and branding.
The distinctive triangular bites and flared endings become the primary texture in text, producing a lively sparkle at larger sizes. The numerals mirror the same carved, pointed vocabulary, helping headlines and short statements feel cohesive across alphanumerics.
