A robust serif with high-contrast forms and emphatic, sculpted stroke endings. Stems and diagonals broaden into flared terminals and wedge-like serifs, creating sharp, triangular notches and a chiseled rhythm across the alphabet. Counters are generally compact and rounded, while joins and interior angles stay crisp, giving letters a sturdy, engraved feel. Numerals follow the same strong, carved logic with substantial bowls and decisive terminals for clear, poster-ready figures.
Best suited to headlines, magazine and newspaper-style editorial layouts, and bold titling where its flared serifs and sharp terminals can be appreciated. It can also support branding and packaging that aims for a classic, premium voice, and works well for book-cover typography and short blocks of display text.
The overall tone is confident and traditional, with an editorial seriousness that reads as formal and established. Its sharp flares and carved details add a slightly historic, monumental character—more declarative than friendly—while remaining clean and legible at display sizes.
The design appears intended to combine traditional serif structure with pronounced flaring and sharp, carved terminals to produce a strong, print-forward display voice. Its consistent, sculpted detailing suggests a focus on impact and authority in titles rather than neutrality in long-form text.
The typeface shows consistent serif logic across uppercase and lowercase, with pointed, wedge-like details appearing at key corners (notably in letters with diagonals and angled joins). Round letters keep smooth curves but are anchored by firm, straight-sided stem behavior, producing a steady, authoritative texture in paragraphs.
