A tightly drawn display serif with heavy, dark main strokes set against sharp hairline serifs and thin connecting strokes, creating a pronounced contrast and vertical-stress feel. Serifs are crisp and relatively unbracketed, with pointed, wedge-like joins and occasional tapered feet. Curves are sculpted and slightly bulbous in places, with teardrop and ball-like terminals visible in letters like a, g, j, and y. Counters are compact and the overall color is dense, while spacing and widths vary noticeably across glyphs, giving the line a lively, uneven rhythm in text settings.
Best suited for short, prominent text such as headlines, title treatments, cover lines, pull quotes, posters, and bold branding moments on packaging. The dense color and sharp contrast help it stand out at larger sizes, while extended passages may feel visually intense due to the compact counters and hairline detailing.
The tone is assertive and theatrical, mixing classic editorial sophistication with a punchy, poster-like presence. Its sharp hairlines and carved shapes suggest tradition and refinement, while the weight and wide stance add boldness and immediacy.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic high-contrast serif voice with modern display impact—pairing crisp, refined hairlines with oversized weight and width for attention-grabbing typography. The sculpted terminals and variable rhythm suggest an emphasis on character and drama over neutrality.
In the sample text, the strong contrast makes internal joins and thin strokes highly visible, especially where diagonals meet stems (K, V, W, X) and in round forms (O, Q). Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with a distinctive, heavy 8 and a 2 that features a prominent curved spine and sharp finishing strokes.
