A heavy display serif with flared stroke endings and soft, sculpted serifs that feel more shaped than bracketed. The letterforms are broad and generously proportioned, with rounded bowls and subtly flattened terminals that create a carved, inked look. Curves are full and slightly squarish in places, and joins show gentle swelling that gives the alphabet a lively, hand-press rhythm. Numerals are equally weighty and open, built for impact rather than fine detail.
Best suited to display roles where the heavy color and flared details can be appreciated—headlines, posters, editorial openers, and punchy branding. It can also work for short blocks of copy such as pull quotes or packaging statements when set with generous spacing.
The font projects a bold, outgoing tone with a hint of vintage print and headline bravado. Its soft flares and rounded interior shapes keep it approachable, balancing authority with warmth. Overall it reads as energetic and characterful rather than formal or delicate.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a distinctive flared-serif signature, evoking classic print and advertising aesthetics while staying friendly and contemporary in its rounded construction.
Large sizes emphasize the distinctive flaring at the ends of stems and the subtly uneven, organic rhythm across letters. The lowercase carries a particularly chunky, playful texture, helping text blocks feel dense and attention-grabbing. In tighter settings the weight can close counters, so it benefits from comfortable tracking and line spacing.
