A decorative serif with extreme contrast between razor-thin hairlines and heavy, rounded joins. Many strokes swell into soft, bulb-like forms that pinch into needle points, creating flared, wedge-like terminals and occasional ball terminals. Curves dominate the construction—especially in O/C/G and the bowls of b/d/p/q—while horizontals often read as near-hairline rules. The overall rhythm is spacious and airy, with generous counters and a slightly irregular, display-first texture that becomes most striking at larger sizes.
Best suited to large-scale display settings where the hairlines and pinched transitions can remain crisp: fashion and culture headlines, magazine mastheads, boutique branding, packaging, and posters. It can work for short, impactful lines of text, but the extreme contrast and decorative constructions suggest avoiding long passages at small sizes.
The tone is couture and theatrical: elegant at a distance, but quirky up close due to its pinched joins, teardrop shapes, and hairline detailing. It mixes refined editorial polish with a playful, almost magical sparkle, giving text a distinctive, curated personality rather than a neutral voice.
The design appears intended to reinterpret classical serif forms through exaggerated contrast and sculptural joins, prioritizing memorable silhouettes and luxurious sparkle over neutral readability. It aims to feel editorial and contemporary while adding a distinctive ornamental signature in key glyph details.
Several glyphs feature standout details such as needle-like spurs, delicate interior cross-strokes, and star-like dots on the i/j, adding a bespoke, ornamental feel. Numerals and caps maintain the same swelling-and-pinching logic, producing strong silhouettes with a light, filigreed internal structure in some forms.
