A heavy, high-contrast serif with pronounced flaring at stroke terminals and strongly bracketed joins. Curves are full and slightly bulbous, while counters and apertures stay relatively tight, creating dense, emphatic letterforms. The rhythm is lively due to noticeable width variation across glyphs, with sturdy verticals and crisp, sculpted serifs that feel carved rather than mechanical. Numerals and capitals read solid and compact, while lowercase forms show a sturdy, oldstyle-like presence with prominent shoulders and clear, weighty terminals.
Best suited for display settings where impact is the priority: headlines, poster titles, magazine mastheads, and bold packaging or label typography. It can also work well for identity and branding in contexts that benefit from a retro, authoritative voice, especially when set large with comfortable spacing.
The overall tone is bold and commanding with a distinctly vintage flavor—part classic print display, part mid‑century sign or sports headline. Its dark color and dramatic contrast give it a confident, attention-grabbing voice suited to assertive messaging rather than subtlety.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum presence with a sculpted, flared-serif silhouette—combining high contrast with sturdy proportions to produce a distinctive, vintage-leaning display color. Its forms prioritize punchy readability and character in short text, emphasizing strong shapes and dramatic terminals.
At larger sizes the flared terminals and bracketed transitions become a defining texture, producing a slightly inky, poster-like density. The design’s tight internal spaces and strong modulation suggest it will look best when given enough size (and a touch of tracking if needed) to keep counters from closing up visually.
