A compact, heavy serif with pronounced wedge-like flares at stroke terminals and a strongly vertical, poster-oriented rhythm. Stems are thick and confident, with tight counters and short, sturdy serifs that broaden into tapered, chiseled endings rather than flat slabs. Curves are robust and slightly squarish in feel, and joins stay clean and simplified, giving the alphabet a cohesive, engineered texture across caps, lowercase, and figures. Numerals are weighty and condensed, matching the dense color and sturdy proportions of the letters.
Best suited to headlines, mastheads, posters, and signage where its heavy presence and flared serif detailing can be appreciated. It can also work for branding and packaging that aims for a sturdy, heritage-leaning voice, and for editorial pull quotes or section headers where a compact, high-impact display face is needed.
The overall tone is bold and commanding with a vintage, workmanlike edge. Its flared terminals and compact forms evoke classic display typography—part newspaper headline, part old signage—projecting confidence, grit, and a touch of drama.
The design appears intended as a bold display serif that combines compact proportions with flared, wedge-like terminals to deliver strong impact and a period-tinged character. It prioritizes solid silhouette and headline authority over delicate detail, aiming for a practical, attention-grabbing typographic voice.
The density of the black shapes and the relatively small apertures create a strong page color that holds up well in short bursts. The design reads most clearly when given room to breathe in tracking and line spacing, especially in text with many rounded forms.
