This serif shows an extreme thick–thin rhythm with hairline horizontals and pronounced, sculpted thick strokes. Stems subtly widen into wedge-like flares and taper into sharp, triangular terminals rather than blunt slabs, giving a carved, high-fashion finish. Curves are smooth and tightly controlled, with a clear diagonal stress and crisp joins; counters are generous in round letters like O and Q while some characters introduce lively asymmetry (notably the tailing forms and angled diagonals). Overall spacing feels designed for display: compact in places with strong internal contrast and a distinctly crisp edge at larger sizes.
Best suited to headlines, pull quotes, and large-size editorial typography where the extreme contrast and hairline details can resolve cleanly. It’s a strong fit for fashion and culture magazines, luxury branding touchpoints, posters, and sophisticated packaging. In longer passages it works most convincingly at comfortable sizes with ample line spacing to preserve the fine strokes.
The tone is luxurious and theatrical, mixing classic bookish sophistication with a modern, high-contrast snap. It feels confident and refined, with an editorial polish that reads as premium and intentional rather than neutral.
The design appears aimed at a high-contrast display serif that blends classical proportions with flared, sharpened terminals for a contemporary editorial voice. Its deliberate tapering, crisp wedges, and pronounced stress suggest an intention to feel both timeless and fashion-forward, prioritizing impact and refinement in large-scale typography.
Uppercase forms feel stately and high-impact, while the lowercase introduces more movement through tapered entry/exit strokes and distinctive, pointed details. Numerals match the display intent, with bold silhouettes and sharp hairline features that reinforce the dramatic contrast in text settings.
