A very heavy serif with compact proportions and softly bracketed, flared terminals that swell from the stems rather than ending in blunt slabs. Curves are generously rounded and slightly “bulb” at joins and ends, while horizontals feel thick and steady, creating a dense, confident texture. Counters are relatively small for the weight, and the rhythm alternates between sturdy verticals and tapered, teardrop-like finishing shapes, especially noticeable in letters with arms and tails. Numerals share the same weighty build and rounded shaping, producing a cohesive, poster-ready set.
Well suited to display roles such as headlines, posters, and impactful editorial titling where its dense weight and flared serifs can carry personality. It can also work for branding and packaging that want a vintage-leaning, crafted feel, and for short bursts of copy where texture matters more than long-form comfort.
The overall tone is bold and personable, mixing classic print authority with a distinctly retro warmth. Its soft flare and rounded forms keep it approachable, while the dark color and compact spacing cues a confident, headline-forward voice.
The design appears aimed at delivering maximum presence with a softer, more humanized serif vocabulary—using flared, bracketed terminals and rounded joins to balance weight with warmth. It prioritizes memorable shapes and a strong typographic color for attention-grabbing display use.
Capitals read as solid and monumental, while lowercase forms show more lively modulation in terminals and curves, giving text a slightly animated, hand-influenced feel without becoming informal. The heavy strokes and tight interior spaces make it most effective when given room to breathe, especially in multi-line settings.
