A high-contrast serif with sharply carved, wedge-like serifs and pronounced flared stroke endings that give many terminals a chiseled, triangular finish. Vertical stems read sturdy and dark while hairlines and joins taper quickly, creating a crisp light–dark rhythm. Curves are generous but tightly controlled, with pointed inner corners and angled cut-ins that add bite to counters and apertures. Proportions lean toward compact, display-minded forms with slightly condensed feeling in places and lively width variation across letters and figures.
Best suited for display settings such as headlines, magazine mastheads, posters, and book or album covers where its sharp serifs and strong contrast can be appreciated. It can also work for branding and packaging that wants a refined but slightly edgy, sculpted serif presence, especially at medium to large sizes.
The overall tone is assertive and dramatic, combining a classical serif foundation with a more stylized, angular edge. It feels ceremonious and editorial—suited to bold statements where contrast and sharp detailing can read as premium and authoritative.
The font appears designed to reinterpret a traditional serif with more angular, flared finishing and heightened contrast, prioritizing visual impact and a distinctive, carved silhouette. Its details suggest an intention to deliver authority and elegance while remaining attention-grabbing in modern editorial and branding contexts.
The design language is consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals: terminals often resolve into small wedges, and diagonals (notably in V/W/X/Y) emphasize pointed, faceted endings. Numerals share the same sculpted contrast, helping headlines and pull quotes keep a unified typographic voice.
