A heavy, high-impact serif with flared stroke endings and pronounced contrast between thick verticals and thinner joins. Serifs are bracketed and wedge-like, with smooth, swelling transitions that give the strokes a carved, sculptural feel. Counters are relatively tight and the overall color is dense, while round forms (O, C, G) stay broad and stable. Lowercase shows single-storey a and g, compact apertures, and rounded i/j dots; numerals are similarly weighty with strong curves and crisp terminals.
Best suited to display use such as headlines, posters, editorial titles, and brand marks where strong presence is needed. It can also work for short blurbs or packaging callouts, but the heavy color and compact counters suggest keeping body text sizes generous and line lengths moderate.
The font reads bold and self-assured, with a distinctly retro, poster-era tone. Its flared details and dramatic contrast add a sense of theatricality, while the rounded shapes keep it friendly enough for punchy, upbeat messaging.
This design appears intended as a contemporary display serif that borrows from vintage flared and engraved letterforms, emphasizing boldness, contrast, and distinctive terminals for maximum impact in titles and branding.
In text settings the dense weight and tight counters create a strong headline texture, with distinctive letter silhouettes that help recognition at large sizes. The italic is not shown; all samples appear upright and display-oriented.
