A heavy, forward-slanted serif with pronounced flare where strokes terminate, creating wedge-like serifs and tapered joins. The design leans on strong thick–thin modulation, with sharply carved counters and brisk, diagonal stress that reads clearly in both caps and lowercase. Forms are wide and spacious with a sturdy baseline presence; curves often end in pointed, swept terminals (notably on S, C, G, and the lowercase a/e), while verticals and diagonals broaden into confident, sculpted endings. Numerals match the letterforms with bold bowls, energetic diagonals, and crisp, tapered finishing strokes.
Best suited to display contexts where its flared serifs and dynamic contrast can be appreciated—headlines, posters, punchy editorial titling, branding marks, and packaging. It can also work for short pull quotes or subheads, but its dense weight and energetic detailing are most effective at larger sizes.
The overall tone is bold and performative—part vintage display, part energetic headline italic. It evokes classic poster and editorial drama, with a confident, slightly sporty punch that feels built for attention rather than quiet text setting.
The letterforms appear designed to combine a traditional serif foundation with energetic, flared stroke endings and a strong italic drive, prioritizing impact and character in display typography. The consistent sculpting across letters and numerals suggests an emphasis on cohesive, attention-grabbing word shapes for prominent use.
In the sample text, the tight internal counters and strong tapering create lively word shapes and a rhythmic, carved texture. The italic slant is substantial and consistent, helping long lines feel fast and animated while keeping letterforms robust and legible at large sizes.
