A high-contrast serif with crisp, knife-like serifs and noticeably flared stroke endings that broaden into terminals. The construction feels calligraphic: hairlines get extremely thin while main strokes stay robust, producing a sparkling light–dark rhythm. Curves are round and polished, counters are relatively compact, and joins stay clean, giving the face a refined, controlled texture. Numerals and capitals carry a formal, engraved-like presence, while the lowercase maintains a steady, readable rhythm with pronounced thick–thin modulation.
This style excels in headlines, magazine and book display typography, and brand marks where a premium, classical impression is desired. It also suits posters, invitations, and packaging that benefit from sharp detail and a high-contrast silhouette, especially at medium-to-large sizes.
The overall tone is poised and sophisticated, with a distinctly dramatic, fashion-forward edge. Its sharp serifs and pronounced contrast suggest luxury and ceremony, reading as confident and curated rather than casual or friendly.
The design appears aimed at delivering a refined, high-contrast serif voice with sculpted, flared endings—combining classical proportions with a modern, editorial bite. It prioritizes a striking silhouette and polished texture for display-driven typography.
In text, the strong contrast and tight detailing create a bold, high-end texture that rewards generous sizing and good printing or display conditions. The flared terminals add a subtle sculptural quality that keeps strokes from feeling purely mechanical, even at heavier stems.
