A high-contrast serif with razor-thin hairlines and broad, sculpted main strokes that swell and taper into subtly flared terminals. Serifs are sharp and bracketed in feel, with pointed wedge-like endings that heighten the chiselled, glossy rhythm across words. Proportions read as classical with a moderate x-height; lowercase forms are compact and tightly drawn, while capitals are statuesque and carefully balanced. Curves (C, G, O, Q) show pronounced thick–thin modulation, and joins/arms resolve into fine, needle-like details that stay crisp at display sizes.
Best suited to display typography such as magazine headlines, fashion and cultural editorial, brand marks, and premium packaging where the high contrast can be showcased. It can also work for pull quotes and short subheads, but will be most effective when given enough size and breathing room to preserve the fine hairlines.
The overall tone is polished and dramatic, projecting an editorial, high-fashion sensibility. Its strong contrast and sharp finishing give it a sense of luxury and authority, with a slightly theatrical flair that feels suited to curated, premium contexts.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary luxury serif voice by combining classical proportions with emphatic contrast and flared, knife-sharp terminals. Its detailing prioritizes sophistication and impact, creating an upscale texture that reads immediately as curated and high-end.
Spacing appears intentionally on the tight-to-moderate side, emphasizing a dense, glossy texture in headline settings. Distinctive details like the italic-like diagonal energy in K and the pointed, flared stroke endings contribute to a lively, crafted surface rather than a purely mechanical one.
