A robust serif with sculpted, wedge-like serifs and subtly flared stems that broaden toward terminals, giving the letterforms a carved, calligraphy-adjacent feel. Proportions are traditional and steady, with generous counters and a strong baseline presence that reads clearly at display sizes. Stroke modulation is noticeable but restrained, and the joins and serifs are smoothly bracketed rather than sharp, creating a cohesive, slightly softened rhythm across the alphabet. Numerals and capitals carry substantial weight and broad curves, while lowercase forms remain sturdy and open, supporting dense setting without looking spindly.
Well-suited to headlines, editorial typography, and book or magazine titling where a strong serif voice is desired. It can also work for posters and branding that benefit from a traditional, confident tone and clear forms at larger sizes.
The overall tone is authoritative and editorial, with a classic bookish character and a confident, slightly ceremonial demeanor. Its flared finishing and substantial weight lend a sense of tradition and gravitas without becoming overly ornate.
The design appears intended to blend classic serif readability with a more sculptural, flared-stem finish, offering a distinctive presence for titles and editorial settings. It aims to feel established and trustworthy while adding a subtle display-driven personality through its terminal treatment.
Round letters show broad, even bowls and consistent inner spaces, and diagonals (such as in V, W, X, and Y) feel firmly anchored. The design’s flared endings add a subtle display flavor that can emphasize headings while still feeling compatible with continuous text when set with comfortable spacing.
