A heavy, compact serif with pronounced flaring at stroke terminals and subtly bracketed, wedge-like serifs. Strokes are broadly monolinear, but with gentle swelling into joins and ends that creates a carved, slightly calligraphic rhythm. Counters are relatively tight and apertures are somewhat closed, giving the letters a dense, poster-ready color. Curves are smooth and full, while verticals feel sturdy and stable; the lowercase shows round, robust bowls with short, thick serifs and a generally even texture in text.
Best suited to attention-grabbing display work such as headlines, posters, and brand marks where a dense, high-impact texture is desired. It can also support editorial titling and packaging applications that benefit from a vintage-leaning, crafted serif voice.
The overall tone is bold and assertive yet approachable, combining a classic editorial seriousness with a warm, retro display flavor. Its flared endings and chunky proportions lend a crafted, vintage voice that feels energetic rather than formal.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact through heavy weight and flared serif terminals, balancing classic serif cues with a more contemporary, punchy silhouette. Its consistent, dense texture suggests a focus on strong readability and presence in large-scale typography.
The uppercase reads strongly with wide, rounded forms (notably in C/G/O) and crisp, straight-sided construction in E/F/H. The lowercase maintains a consistent weight and presence, with chunky terminals that keep small sizes from looking delicate, while the numerals match the same heavy, simplified structure for cohesive headline setting.
