A bold, high-contrast serif with pronounced flared terminals and bracketed serifs that create a sculpted, chiselled feel. Vertical stems read as heavy and steady while hairlines are thin and sharply tapered, producing crisp inner counters and a strong light–dark rhythm. The letterforms are broadly proportioned with generous widths, rounded bowls, and pointed joins that often resolve into wedge-like ends. Numerals and capitals carry the same emphatic contrast and flare, giving the overall texture a dense, authoritative color in text and a striking silhouette in display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, covers, and large-scale editorial typography where its contrast and flared details can be appreciated. It also works well for branding, packaging, and formal promotional materials that need a confident, classic voice with strong presence.
The typeface conveys an assertive, formal tone with a distinctly editorial polish. Its sharp contrast and flared endings introduce a touch of drama and heritage, suggesting tradition with a theatrical edge rather than a quiet bookish mood.
The design appears intended to merge traditional serif construction with expressive flared terminals, maximizing impact through contrast and bold proportions. It prioritizes a commanding display texture while retaining familiar, legible letter skeletons for short-to-medium text settings.
Stroke endings frequently finish in angled wedges, and diagonals (notably in V/W/X/Y) feel tense and emphatic, reinforcing a crisp, energetic rhythm. The lowercase maintains a steady, readable structure while still exhibiting the same flared, calligraphic modulation seen in the capitals and figures.
