A heavy, high-contrast serif with strongly flared stroke endings and crisp, wedge-like terminals that create a chiseled silhouette. Stems read robust and upright, while joins and serifs show a sculpted, bracketed feel that softens transitions without losing edge. Counters are relatively compact against the weight, and the overall rhythm is lively, with angular notches and tapered details visible in letters like K, R, S, and the diagonals of V/W/X. Numerals and capitals feel sturdy and display-oriented, with clear thick–thin modulation and decisive finishing strokes.
Best suited to headlines, decks, and short editorial statements where its high-contrast shaping and flared endings can be appreciated. It also fits branding and packaging that want a classic-but-dramatic serif voice, and it can work for pull quotes or title treatments where strong typographic color is desirable.
The tone is assertive and theatrical, combining a classical serif heritage with a poster-like punch. Its sharp terminals and sculpted contrast suggest prestige and gravity, while the flared detailing adds a slightly flamboyant, headline-driven energy.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional serif reading with amplified contrast and sculptural flaring, prioritizing impact and character over quiet neutrality. Its consistent, emphatic terminals and dense typographic color point to display and editorial use where authority and drama are key.
At text sizes the strong modulation and tight interior spaces can build dense texture, while larger sizes emphasize the distinctive wedge terminals and the dynamic silhouette. The lowercase has a traditional structure (two-storey a and g) and a pronounced, weighty presence that makes the overall color of a paragraph quite dark and emphatic.
