A high-contrast serif with sculpted, flaring stroke terminals that feel carved rather than bracketed. Stems are firm and vertical while hairlines and connecting strokes taper to razor-thin joins, creating a lively thick–thin rhythm. Serifs and terminals often resolve into pointed, wedge-like forms with occasional curved beaks and spurs, giving the outlines a chiseled, slightly calligraphic finish. Proportions are fairly classic with a moderate x-height; curves are taut and oval forms (like O and o) show pronounced contrast and elegant tension. Numerals echo the same incisive modulation, with stylized curves and tapered entry/exit strokes.
Best suited to display typography such as magazine covers, fashion and beauty campaigns, premium branding, posters, and refined packaging. It can also work for short editorial elements like pull quotes or section heads where the contrast and sculpted terminals can be appreciated without compromising clarity.
The overall tone is polished and theatrical, projecting an upscale, editorial sensibility. Its sharp modulation and flared endings add a sense of movement and sophistication, reading as confident, elegant, and intentionally showy rather than utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, luxury-leaning take on a high-contrast serif by combining crisp hairlines with flared, wedge-like terminals for a carved, fashion-forward presence. It prioritizes distinctive silhouette and dramatic rhythm to create memorable typographic voice in titles and branding.
In text settings the strong contrast and fine hairlines create sparkle and hierarchy, especially at display sizes. The distinctive terminals and spurs give many letters a signature silhouette, which helps headlines feel branded but can become visually busy when tightly set or used too small.
