A stylized serif with an italic, forward-leaning skeleton and tightly set proportions. Strokes feel carved and tapered, with sharp, triangular wedge serifs and pointed terminals that create a cut-paper or incised look. Many forms show deliberate notches and teardrop-like ink traps in joins and curves, producing a rhythmic alternation of thick, blade-like stems and fine hairline connections. Round letters (O, Q, C) are slightly pinched and angularized, while diagonals and arms end in crisp, spear-shaped tips; numerals echo the same pointed, calligraphic construction.
Best suited to headlines, magazine and lookbook typography, and brand marks that need a refined but striking voice. It can work well for posters, packaging, and short pull quotes where the sharp terminals and carved details have room to show, especially at medium-to-large sizes.
The overall tone is fashionable and high-drama, blending classic serif cues with a distinctly modern, editorial attitude. Its sharp cuts and stylized stress read as luxurious and slightly theatrical, suited to bold, image-led typography rather than quiet body text.
The letterforms appear intended to reinterpret an italic serif through a sculptural, cut-and-tapered construction, emphasizing silhouette and crisp terminal detail. The notches and wedge serifs suggest a goal of creating a memorable, high-end display face with a distinctive editorial signature.
The design relies on pronounced tapering and negative cut-ins that become more apparent at larger sizes, where the sculpted joins and notched counters read as intentional detailing. Spacing and rhythm feel designed for display settings, with strong silhouette contrast between straight stems and curved bowls.
