A heavy, high-contrast display face built from broad stems and tight interior counters. Curves show scooped joins and teardrop-like terminals that give the shapes a carved, slightly “inked” feel, while verticals remain sturdy and upright. The uppercase is compact and blocky with round bowls and sharp, straight-sided diagonals; the lowercase keeps a robust rhythm with a single-storey a and g and pronounced, bracket-like transitions into curves. Overall spacing reads dense and punchy, producing strong color in lines of text and a distinctly shaped silhouette per letter.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and branding where strong typographic presence is needed. It can work for short subheads or pull quotes at medium sizes, but its dense weight and tight counters favor larger settings and generous line spacing for comfortable reading.
The tone is bold and assertive with a vintage editorial flavor—part poster headline, part old-style print heft. Its dramatic stroke contrast and scooped detailing add theatricality and a slightly mischievous, attention-grabbing personality without becoming ornamental.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a distinctive, carved high-contrast look—combining robust, blocky construction with expressive terminals and joins. It aims for memorable letterforms that hold up in bold display typography while maintaining clear, straightforward structures.
Distinctive details include the curved foot on J, a low-slung crossbar on t, and broad, rounded bowls across B/D/O/P that emphasize solidity. Numerals follow the same chunky, sculpted logic, staying highly legible and visually consistent with the letters.
