A display serif with pronounced contrast between thick verticals and hairline joins, paired with flared stroke endings that read as sharp wedge-like serifs. The letterforms are broad and generously set, with sculpted curves and frequent ball or teardrop terminals that add a calligraphic, engraved flavor. Counters are open and rounded, diagonals are crisp, and the overall rhythm alternates between hefty stems and delicate connections, giving the face a carved, high-fashion silhouette. Numerals follow the same logic, with bold bodies and fine, pointed finishing strokes.
Best suited for headlines, large typography, magazine layouts, and brand marks where strong contrast and flared serifs can carry the visual identity. It also works well on packaging and promotional materials that benefit from a refined, high-impact serif presence.
The tone is dramatic and editorial, mixing classical serif authority with a stylish, theatrical sharpness. It feels luxurious and attention-seeking, suited to statements where contrast and silhouette are meant to be noticed.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, high-contrast serif voice with flared, sharpened endings and ornamental terminals, emphasizing silhouette and elegance over neutrality. Its proportions and detailing suggest a focus on display settings and editorial styling.
In text samples the weight and contrast create strong word shapes, while the flared endings and hairlines add sparkle and texture. The design leans more toward display use than long-form reading, especially as the thin joins can visually recede at smaller sizes.
