A high-contrast serif with tapered, flaring terminals and a distinctly calligraphic stroke model. Thin hairlines and sharp joins counterbalance fuller curves, producing a crisp, elegant rhythm. The letterforms show moderate proportions with open counters and slightly varied widths across the set, giving text a lively, sculpted texture. Serifs and terminals often resolve into wedge-like, brushed endings rather than blunt slabs, reinforcing the flared character while keeping an overall clean, upright stance.
Best suited for display and editorial settings such as magazine headlines, pull quotes, book or album covers, and premium brand identities. It can also work for short to medium passages in print-oriented layouts where its delicate hairlines and flared terminals have enough size and contrast to remain clear.
The overall tone reads refined and editorial, with a quiet sense of luxury. Its sharp hairlines and polished curves feel formal and composed, while the flared endings add a subtle humanist warmth. It suggests classic print craft—suited to sophisticated, well-paced typography rather than utilitarian UI voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, fashion-leaning take on classic serif typography by combining sharp hairlines with flared, brush-like terminals. It aims for a polished, premium impression while preserving a calligraphic, crafted feel in the stroke endings and curves.
In the sample text, the spacing and contrast create a bright page color at larger sizes, with particularly delicate horizontals and hairlines that emphasize elegance. The figures appear similarly refined, with curving strokes and tapered details that match the letterforms’ calligraphic logic.
