A high-contrast serif with strongly flared terminals and pronounced wedge-like serifs that feel cut and sculpted rather than purely mechanical. The thick strokes are weighty and compact in the counters, while hairlines and joins snap to fine, crisp points, creating a lively light–dark rhythm. Curves are full and slightly calligraphic, and diagonals end in sharp, tapered beaks; the overall texture is dense and emphatic, especially in caps and numerals.
Best suited to display settings where its contrast and flared detailing can be appreciated—magazine headlines, cultural posters, book covers, and premium brand or packaging marks. It can also work for short pull quotes or section openers where a dense, dramatic texture is desirable.
The font projects a confident, editorial seriousness with a touch of theatrical flair. Its sharp, flaring details and dramatic contrast lend an upscale, headline-driven tone—classic but not quiet, with a distinctly assertive presence.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-impact take on a classical serif voice, using flared stroke endings and razor-thin details to heighten drama and authority. It prioritizes presence and typographic character for attention-grabbing editorial and branding applications.
The letterforms show consistent flaring at stroke endings, giving even simple shapes a carved, ornamental edge. In text, the heavy main strokes create strong color and impact, while the thin connections and pointed serifs add sparkle and tension at larger sizes.
