This typeface shows tall, tightly set proportions with a pronounced vertical rhythm and strong thick–thin modulation. Strokes are sharply tapered, with wedge-like, flared endings that read as hairline serifs rather than heavy brackets. Curves are sculpted and crisp, and many joins and apexes resolve into pointed, calligraphic-looking tips, giving letters a chiseled, drawn quality. Overall spacing and forms feel compact and columnar, creating a dense, polished texture in text.
It performs best in headlines, magazine settings, fashion and beauty branding, and poster typography where its contrast and narrow forms can create impact without taking much horizontal space. It can also work for short pull quotes or titling in editorial layouts when given room to breathe and paired with a calmer text face.
The overall tone is refined and dramatic, with a couture/editorial feel. Its sharp tapers and sleek contrast project sophistication and a slightly theatrical presence, suited to high-end or statement-driven typography rather than quiet neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, high-fashion serif voice with calligraphic taper and flared endings, prioritizing style, vertical elegance, and a distinctive silhouette for prominent typographic moments.
The design emphasizes verticality and tension: counters are relatively narrow, curves pull inward, and terminals often finish in thin, blade-like points. The result is a crisp, high-definition silhouette that holds up well at display sizes and creates a distinctive rhythm in longer lines when set with generous leading.
