A high-contrast serif with thin hairlines and weighty vertical stems, combining crisp, wedge-like serifs with distinctive teardrop/ball terminals. Curves are smooth and tightly controlled, while many joins and stroke endings flare into rounded drops that give the letterforms a slightly ornamental, calligraphic finish. Proportions feel classically bookish in structure, but with playful, nonstandard detailing on capitals and lowercase (notably in diagonals and terminals), creating a lively rhythm in text. Figures follow the same contrast pattern, with sculpted curves and stylized terminals that read clearly at display sizes.
Best suited to display applications such as magazine headlines, mastheads, fashion or beauty branding, packaging, and poster typography where the high contrast and ornamental terminals can be appreciated. It can also work for short editorial subheads or pull quotes, but the stylized terminals are most effective when given enough size and spacing.
The overall tone is polished and upscale, evoking fashion and editorial typography, but with a quirky, theatrical edge from the droplet terminals and occasional swashy gestures. It feels elegant rather than austere, projecting sophistication while still signaling personality and craft.
The design appears intended to reinterpret a classic high-contrast serif for contemporary display use, adding signature teardrop terminals and subtle swash-like behaviors to stand out in branding and editorial contexts. It prioritizes visual character and a memorable silhouette while maintaining a readable, structured serif foundation.
In the sample text, the dark verticals create strong texture and sparkle against the fine hairlines; the decorative terminals become a defining feature, especially at larger sizes where their shapes read as intentional ornaments. The design balances traditional serif cues with idiosyncratic details, making it feel both familiar and distinct.
