A sculpted serif with sharply tapered stems and pronounced flare into wedge-like terminals, producing a strong calligraphic stress and a vivid thick–thin rhythm. Serifs are short and angular rather than slabby, with crisp joins and frequent pointed beaks on corners and diagonals. The letterforms show a lively, slightly elastic silhouette—narrower internal counters and swelling outer curves—creating an energetic texture in text while maintaining clear, traditional proportions. Numerals and capitals carry the same dramatic contrast and taper, giving headings a carved, poster-like presence.
Best suited to display applications such as headlines, magazine titles, posters, and book covers where the sharp contrast and flared terminals can be appreciated. It also works well for branding and logotypes that want a classic yet striking voice, particularly in larger sizes and with generous spacing.
The overall tone feels dramatic and editorial, with a refined, high-fashion confidence. Its sharp terminals and swelling strokes suggest a classic print heritage—part newspaper display, part luxury masthead—while the lively contrast adds a sense of theatricality and impact.
The design appears intended to blend traditional serif structure with a more expressive, flared stroke ending, amplifying contrast for maximum impact. It targets attention-grabbing typography that still feels rooted in classic editorial and print conventions.
In continuous text the intense contrast and pointed terminals create a distinctive sparkle and a firm vertical rhythm. The design’s angular wedges and flared endings are especially prominent in letters like A, V, W, and Y, which read as crisp and assertive at larger sizes.
