A high-contrast serif with strongly sculpted, flaring stroke endings and crisp wedge-like terminals. The outlines show pronounced thick–thin transitions, with stout verticals and hairline joins that create a sharp, chiseled rhythm. Serifs are bracketed and often resolve into pointed, tapered forms rather than flat slabs, giving letters a carved, display-forward presence. Counters are compact and the overall texture is dense and dark, while curves (notably in C, G, S, and 8) feel tightly drawn and controlled.
Best suited to large sizes where its sharp contrast and flared terminals can be appreciated—editorial headlines, magazine and book titling, posters, and brand marks that want a classic-but-dramatic voice. In longer passages it will create a strong, dark texture, so it tends to work more comfortably for short text blocks, pull quotes, or display typography.
The tone is theatrical and authoritative, combining classical bookish cues with a slightly baroque, poster-like punch. Its sharp terminals and high contrast add drama and ceremony, reading as refined but attention-seeking rather than quiet or utilitarian.
The design appears intended to reinterpret traditional serif proportions through a flared, carved stroke model that amplifies contrast and terminal sharpness for impact. It prioritizes expressive silhouette and dense typographic color, aiming for confident display performance in editorial and branding contexts.
Uppercase forms feel stately and monumental, while the lowercase retains the same flared, calligraphic logic for consistent color across mixed-case settings. Numerals are weighty and curvaceous, matching the letters with strong contrast and pronounced terminals; punctuation such as the period appears robust and dark, reinforcing the overall heavy typographic color.
