A high-contrast serif with sharply tapered hairlines and pronounced thick–thin transitions. Stems and joins feel sculpted, with subtle flaring into terminals and serifs that read as crisp, wedge-like accents rather than heavy brackets. The letterforms show refined, magazine-style proportions: wide, open bowls (notably in C, O, and Q), narrow hairline cross strokes, and a consistent vertical stress that keeps the texture clean. Numerals and capitals maintain the same dramatic contrast and pointed finishing, creating a crisp rhythm across mixed settings.
Best suited to headlines, pull quotes, mastheads, and brand wordmarks where the contrast and sharp terminals can read clearly. It also fits premium packaging and event or cultural posters that benefit from a refined, dramatic serif voice. For extended text, it performs most confidently at larger sizes where hairlines and fine serifs remain distinct.
The overall tone is poised and premium, balancing classical refinement with a slightly theatrical, fashion-led edge. Its razor-thin details and sharp finishing convey elegance, authority, and a curated editorial sensibility rather than casual warmth.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary high-contrast serif look with sculpted, flared finishing—combining classical serif structure with a modern, editorial sharpness for high-impact typography.
At display sizes, the alternating thick strokes and hairline connections create a lively sparkle and strong silhouette. In longer lines of text, the thin horizontals and delicate terminals remain visually prominent, giving the page a polished, high-end cadence.
