This serif shows pronounced thick–thin modulation with crisp, pointed wedge-like serifs and flared stroke endings that give stems a sculpted, chiseled feel. The capitals are broad and commanding with clean vertical stress and refined, tapered terminals, while the lowercase maintains a steady rhythm with slightly generous widths and compact counters in letters like a, e, and s. Curves are taut and controlled, with sharp joins and neatly trimmed apertures; the numerals match the same high-contrast, wedge-terminal logic for a cohesive text-and-display color.
Best suited for headlines, pull quotes, and editorial typography where its contrast and sharp serifs can read as intentional and premium. It also works well for book jackets, magazine covers, and branding systems that want a classic serif voice with added drama; in longer text it will be most effective at comfortable sizes and with adequate leading.
The overall tone is formal and editorial, with a dramatic, fashion-forward crispness that reads as confident and cultured. Its sharp serifs and steep contrast add a sense of ceremony and authority, while the flared shaping keeps it feeling crafted rather than purely mechanical.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic serif presence with heightened contrast and flared, wedge-like finishing, prioritizing strong silhouettes and a polished page color. It aims to bridge traditional literary cues with a contemporary, high-impact editorial sensibility.
In paragraphs, the texture is bold and high-ink, producing strong word shapes and a distinctly dark typographic color. The punctuation and round forms (O, C, Q, 0) hold their structure well, and diagonals (V, W, X, Y) feel particularly incisive due to the tapered hairlines and wedge terminals.
