A condensed display serif with extreme thick–thin contrast and long hairline terminals. Strokes alternate between weighty vertical stems and razor-thin connecting strokes, with pointed, wedge-like serifs and sharp entry/exit cuts that create a spiky silhouette. Curves are tight and sculpted, producing narrow bowls and teardrop-like counters, while the lowercase shows a noticeably calligraphic flavor with angled joins and delicate ear/terminal details. The rhythm is vertical and taut, prioritizing striking outlines over even texture in continuous reading.
Best suited to large-size applications such as headlines, magazine and fashion layouts, posters, and branding moments where a sophisticated, high-impact serif is needed. It excels in short phrases and titles, especially when paired with generous spacing and ample white space.
The overall tone feels high-fashion and editorial, with a luxurious, dramatic presence. Its sharp hairlines and flared, blade-like endings suggest elegance with a slightly gothic or theatrical edge, suited to attention-grabbing, image-led typography.
The design appears intended as a statement display serif that amplifies contrast and verticality for maximum elegance and impact. Its sharp terminals and sculpted forms aim to deliver a distinctive, couture-like voice for editorial and branding contexts.
In text, the thin connectors and narrow internal spaces can visually close up at smaller sizes, while larger settings emphasize the refined hairlines and distinctive, needle-like terminals. Numerals and caps carry a similarly stylized, sculptural construction that reads best when given room and strong contrast against the background.
