A heavy, high-contrast display serif with flared stroke endings and wedge-like serifs that create sharp, faceted silhouettes. Stems and bowls show pronounced swelling and thinning, with tight interior counters and occasional triangular notches at joins that read like ink traps or cut-in spurs. The capitals are broad and monumental, while the lowercase keeps a moderate x-height with stout, sculpted forms and compact apertures. Numerals echo the same carved, high-contrast rhythm, alternating between rounded masses and razor-edged terminals for a strongly graphic texture.
Best suited to headlines, posters, mastheads, and cover typography where its high-contrast carving and flared terminals can be appreciated at display sizes. It can also serve branding and identity work that needs a strong, classic-yet-edgy voice, particularly for short phrases, titles, and logotypes.
The overall tone is bold and stage-ready, combining classical serif cues with a more aggressive, cut-paper sharpness. It feels ceremonial and attention-grabbing, suited to statements that should read as confident and slightly dramatic rather than quiet or neutral.
The design appears intended as a statement display serif that modernizes traditional forms through exaggerated contrast, flared terminals, and sharp internal cuts. Its letterforms prioritize impact and sculptural presence, producing a distinctive, high-drama texture in text settings.
Diagonal letters (like V/W/X/Y/Z) emphasize pointed terminals and inner cuts, giving the face a distinctly angular sparkle at large sizes. The dense color and tight counters suggest it performs best when given generous spacing and room to breathe, especially in mixed-case settings.
