A robust serif with energetic, right-leaning forms and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Stems and arms show subtle flare as they approach the terminals, paired with bracketed, wedge-like serifs that give the shapes a carved, sculptural feel. Counters are generally generous and round, while joins and curves show a slightly calligraphic tension that keeps the rhythm lively. Lowercase proportions read compact and sturdy, with a prominent x-height relative to ascenders, and figures appear oldstyle in feel with varied widths and strong contrast.
This font is well suited to headlines, magazine and editorial titles, book covers, and branding where a bold, expressive serif voice is needed. It can also serve for short pull quotes or section openers, especially where an italicized, dynamic texture helps guide emphasis.
The overall tone is editorial and classical, but with a punchy, contemporary confidence. Its italic movement and flared endings add drama and momentum, making the texture feel emphatic rather than quiet. The result is expressive and literary—more headline-forward than neutral.
The design appears intended to combine traditional serif structure with a more kinetic, flared, calligraphic finish. It aims to deliver strong presence and readable display impact while maintaining a classic, typographic sensibility.
The set shows strong personality in diagonals and curved strokes, where tapering and flare create a distinct, animated color on the line. Spacing appears comfortable for display sizes, and the high-contrast details reward larger settings where terminals and brackets can be appreciated.
