This typeface pairs heavy, sculpted strokes with pronounced contrast and flared, wedge-like terminals that read as softened serifs. Curves are taut and slightly pinched, with a distinctive swelling-and-tapering rhythm that makes counters feel compact and carved. The uppercase shows strong vertical emphasis and tight proportions, while the lowercase remains sturdy with rounded forms and a relatively contained footprint. Numerals and punctuation match the same chiseled, tapering logic, keeping a consistent dark color and a crisp silhouette in display settings.
Best suited to headlines and short-form display typography where its dark color and flared detailing can be appreciated—such as posters, magazine features, book covers, and bold brand wordmarks. It can also work for punchy subheads or pull quotes when generous spacing and size help maintain clarity.
The overall tone is bold and expressive with a slightly vintage, poster-like character. Its flared endings and high-contrast stress give it a dramatic, editorial presence that feels confident and a bit theatrical rather than quiet or utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, compact display serif with a distinctive flared finish—combining classical serif cues with a more sculptural, contemporary edge to produce high-impact typographic voice.
In the text sample, the dense color and narrow set create a commanding headline texture, while the sculpted joints and tapered joins introduce a lively, hand-influenced sparkle. The design’s distinctive terminals and pinched curves become more prominent as size increases, reinforcing its role as a display-forward serif.
