A heavy display serif with compact proportions and prominent flared stroke endings that swell into triangular, bracketed serifs. Curves are full and tightly drawn, with small-ish counters and a strong, even color across words. Several letters show rounded or ball-like terminals and subtly sculpted joins that add an ink-trap-like sharpness at corners. The overall construction reads sturdy and highly legible at large sizes, with a rhythmic, slightly condensed feel in the lowercase and a commanding uppercase presence.
Best suited to headlines, deck copy, posters, and impactful editorial typography where dense, dark letterforms help anchor a layout. It can also work well for branding, packaging, and campaign graphics that want a classic serif voice with extra punch and visibility.
The tone is bold and assertive, blending traditional serif authority with a contemporary, sporty edge. It feels emphatic and headline-driven rather than delicate, projecting energy, clarity, and a no-nonsense confidence.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact and readability in display settings while retaining the recognizable cues of a traditional serif. Flared terminals and sturdy proportions create a distinctive silhouette that stays cohesive in all-caps and mixed-case text.
The numerals are robust and geometric, matching the strong vertical stress and compact counters of the letters. The lowercase shows clear differentiation (notably in a, g, and t), supporting readability while maintaining a distinctly display-oriented weight and texture.
