A high-contrast serif with crisp, sharply cut details and subtly flared stroke endings that broaden into pointed wedges. Serifs are bracketed and sculpted rather than slabby, with pronounced hairlines and strong verticals that create a clean, polished rhythm. Curves are smooth and controlled, counters are open, and terminals often finish in angled, knife-like cuts, giving the design a taut, contemporary finish while retaining classical proportions.
Best suited to display and larger text sizes where the fine hairlines and sharp terminals can be appreciated—editorial headlines, magazine typography, luxury branding, campaign graphics, and refined posters. It can also work for short pull quotes or section titles where a crisp, elevated tone is desired.
The overall tone reads poised and upscale, combining classic bookish authority with a modern, fashion-forward sharpness. Its contrast and precise detailing give it a premium, curated feel that suggests confidence and formality without becoming overly ornamental.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a high-contrast serif: classical structure paired with flared, tapered endings and clean, incisive details. The goal seems to be an expressive yet controlled voice that reads as premium and authoritative in editorial and brand-facing contexts.
In text, the strong thick–thin modulation and angular terminals create lively sparkle and a slightly dramatic texture, especially in capitals and round forms. The numerals and punctuation match the same refined contrast and sharp finishing, helping headings and display lines feel cohesive and intentional.
