A heavy, oldstyle-leaning serif with broad, compact counters and strongly bracketed, flared terminals that swell into the ends of strokes. The serifs read as wedge-like and sculpted rather than slabby, and the joins show subtle soft transitions that give the letterforms a carved, inked feel. Curves are full and rounded, with robust bowls and a tight interior rhythm that holds together well at large sizes. The lowercase shows traditional proportions with a two-storey “g,” a compact “e,” and sturdy verticals, while figures are weighty and simple with the same flared finishing.
Best suited to display applications where its bold, flared detailing can be appreciated—editorial headlines, magazine openers, posters, book or album covers, and confident branding. It can also work for short subheads or pull quotes when a classic, weight-forward serif voice is desired.
The overall tone is authoritative and heritage-minded, combining a classic print sensibility with a distinctly muscular, attention-grabbing presence. It feels traditional without being delicate, projecting confidence and solidity in headlines and brand statements.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional serif voice with amplified weight and flared finishing, maximizing impact while retaining familiar oldstyle structures. Its emphasis on sculpted terminals and dense color suggests a focus on strong, readable display typography with a historical undertone.
The thickened stroke endings and wedge serifs create a strong silhouette and help letters stay distinct in dense settings. The texture on the page is dark and even, with a compact rhythm that emphasizes mass and impact over airiness.
