A high-contrast serif with flared stroke endings and crisp, knife-like terminals. Strokes transition abruptly from hairline to heavy stems, producing strong vertical emphasis and bright internal counters. Serifs are minimal and wedge-like rather than bracketed, and many joins and terminals resolve into pointed, tapered tips that feel calligraphy-informed. Proportions read generous and open, with sturdy capitals, compact but sturdy lowercase, and numerals that match the same sharp, sculpted contrast.
Best suited to headlines, deck copy, magazine titling, and brand marks where the contrast and flared endings can be appreciated at size. It can also work well for packaging and poster typography that needs a confident, upscale voice.
The tone is assertive and refined, with a fashion/editorial polish and a slightly theatrical edge. Its sharp terminals and strong contrast create a sense of elegance and urgency, suggesting premium, curated content rather than utilitarian text.
Likely designed to deliver a contemporary, high-contrast serif look with flared, tapered endings that nod to calligraphic construction while staying clean and editorial. The emphasis appears to be on impactful display typography with refined detail and strong silhouette.
In larger settings the hairlines and pointed terminals become a key stylistic feature, adding sparkle and a chiseled texture across lines. The overall rhythm alternates between heavy verticals and thin connecting strokes, creating a distinctly modernized classic feel.
