A heavy, sculpted serif with pronounced stroke contrast and broad proportions. Serifs are sharply flared and wedge-like, often forming pointed terminals and notched joins that give the letters a carved, incised feel. Curves are full and rounded (notably in C, O, S, and the bowls), while horizontals and hairline connections pinch in places to create strong internal shaping. The overall color is dense and dark, with compact counters and distinctive cut-ins that add texture without breaking the upright rhythm.
Best suited for headlines and short blocks of text where its carved details and dense weight can read as intentional texture. It works well for posters, branding marks, packaging, and editorial display settings that want a retro, dramatic serif presence. In longer paragraphs, it is likely to perform best with generous size and spacing to preserve the crisp interior shaping.
The tone is bold and theatrical, evoking vintage poster and headline typography with a slightly playful, ornamental edge. Its sharp terminals and sculptural contrast feel confident and attention-seeking, with a hint of old-world drama rather than a neutral bookish presence.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional serif structure with heightened, decorative carving and strong contrast for display impact. It prioritizes memorable outlines and dramatic terminals, aiming for a vintage-inflected, headline-driven voice rather than quiet neutrality.
The design emphasizes distinctive silhouettes—particularly in the diagonals and apexes—through pointed serifs and small interior wedges. Numerals follow the same carved logic, with prominent top/bottom shaping and compact apertures, maintaining a consistent, display-oriented personality across letters and figures.
