A heavy display serif with strongly sculpted, flaring stroke endings and pronounced contrast that reads almost cut or carved into the letterforms. The design mixes crisp wedge-like terminals with soft, bulging bowls and occasional ball terminals, creating a lively rhythm across words. Counters are relatively tight and shapes often feature angled internal cuts or notches that heighten the graphic feel. Uppercase forms are broad and commanding, while the lowercase keeps a tall, sturdy posture with prominent serifs and distinctive, sometimes asymmetric joins.
Best suited to headlines and short lines where its sculpted details can read clearly and its strong texture can carry the layout. It works well for posters, branding marks, packaging, and editorial openers that benefit from a dramatic, vintage-leaning display serif. In dense paragraphs or small sizes, the tight counters and internal cuts may reduce clarity, so generous sizing and spacing are recommended.
The overall tone is bold and theatrical, evoking vintage poster typography with a slightly eccentric, high-fashion edge. Its sharp incisions and swelling curves give it a dramatic, attention-seeking voice that feels curated and stylized rather than neutral or text-driven.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, high-contrast display serif with flared terminals and carved-in detailing that creates an immediate, memorable texture. It prioritizes personality and silhouette impact, aiming for striking word shapes and a distinctive poster-like presence.
Many letters show deliberate internal slicing and tapered apertures that create strong black-and-white patterning at display sizes. Numerals follow the same carved, high-contrast logic, with especially striking diagonals and curved forms that emphasize the font’s graphic personality.
