A slanted, high-contrast serif with sharply tapered hairlines and broad, weighty main strokes. Serifs are crisp and often wedge-like, with subtle flaring where strokes terminate, giving the letterforms a carved, chiseled finish. The overall rhythm is energetic and right-leaning, with compact counters and a strong diagonal stress that reads clearly in both uppercase and lowercase. Numerals follow the same sculpted logic, pairing heavy curves with razor-thin joins for a distinctly theatrical texture.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and prominent short text where its contrast and slant can be appreciated. It works well for magazine and fashion contexts, cultural posters, and branding that needs a refined yet forceful voice. Use with comfortable size and spacing to preserve the thin hairlines and crisp terminals.
The font projects a confident, upscale mood with a sense of drama and motion. Its sharp highlights and sculptural endings feel fashion-forward and editorial, while the italic posture adds flourish and urgency. The tone sits between classical refinement and headline punch.
The design appears intended to deliver a modernized, calligraphy-informed serif voice: dramatic contrast, italic momentum, and flared endings that amplify sophistication for display typography. It aims to balance tradition with a sharper, more performative edge.
In text, the strong contrast produces a vivid black-and-white sparkle, especially where thin connecting strokes meet heavy curves. The design favors display sizing: fine details and narrow apertures are a defining feature and contribute to its intense, stylized color on the line.
