A heavy serif with compact counters and pronounced, flared stroke endings that read as softly bracketed wedges rather than slabs. The letterforms feel broadly proportioned with strong horizontal weight in caps and a sturdy, slightly condensed interior space in the lowercase. Strokes transition with modest contrast, and terminals often finish in triangular or tapered beaks, giving the outlines a carved, inked look. The rhythm is steady and emphatic, with rounded bowls (notably in C/O) balanced by sharp joins and angular spur-like details in letters like a, f, k, and y.
Best suited for display roles such as headlines, posters, packaging, and brand marks where its flared terminals and heavy color can carry the composition. It can also work for short editorial callouts or section headers when a strong, classic-yet-quirky serif voice is desired.
The overall tone is bold and declarative, combining a traditional serif foundation with a distinctly retro, display-forward swagger. It suggests editorial authority and vintage signage energy at the same time, projecting warmth, confidence, and a slightly theatrical presence.
The design appears intended to reinterpret a traditional serif into a high-impact display style by amplifying weight, widening proportions, and emphasizing flared, wedge-like finishing strokes. The result prioritizes personality and presence over neutrality, aiming for strong recognition in titles and branding contexts.
At text sizes the dense weight and tight internal spaces make the texture noticeably dark, while at larger sizes the flared terminals and wedge serifs become the defining character. Numerals follow the same robust, stylized logic, with a particularly graphic 7 and a looping 9 that add a poster-like personality.
