A sturdy serif with gently flared stroke endings and bracketed serifs that broaden into wedge-like terminals. Strokes feel largely even in thickness at text sizes, but with visible modulation at joins and in curved letters, creating a subtly calligraphic texture rather than strict geometric construction. Counters are generous and round (notably in O, C, and o), while apertures and terminals are sharply cut, giving a crisp silhouette. Proportions lean broad with a stable baseline and relatively compact ascenders/descenders, producing a dense, solid typographic color in paragraphs.
Performs well in headlines and short-to-medium passages where a strong serif voice is desired, such as editorial layouts, book jackets, cultural branding, and premium packaging. Its broad proportions and firm stroke endings help it hold up in larger sizes and create a confident typographic hierarchy.
The overall tone is assertive and traditional, with a slightly old-style, print-forward character. The flared endings and sharp cuts add a crafted, authoritative feel that reads as editorial and institutional rather than casual or techy.
The design appears intended to combine classic serif readability with a more contemporary, impactful weight and flared finishing, creating a font that feels traditional yet assertive. The consistent, crisp terminals suggest a focus on strong reproduction in print-like contexts and attention-grabbing display settings.
Uppercase forms are steady and monumental with wide bowls and confident diagonals (A, V, W, Y), while the lowercase shows a two-storey a and single-storey g that keep the texture familiar and highly readable. Numerals are robust and open, matching the letterforms’ strong presence and maintaining clarity at display sizes.
