This typeface is a high-contrast serif with pronounced flared stroke endings that read as wedge-like terminals rather than flat slabs. Stems and bowls show strong thick–thin modulation, with crisp, pointed joins and a sculpted, slightly calligraphic stress that remains overall upright. Capitals are broad and steady with prominent beaks and flares, while lowercase forms keep a moderate x-height and relatively tight apertures, giving text a dense, punchy texture. Numerals share the same chiseled, high-contrast construction and sit confidently alongside the letters, reinforcing a cohesive display rhythm.
It performs best in headlines, magazine display, and other editorial applications where strong contrast and flared terminals can carry visual hierarchy. It is also well-suited to branding, book covers, and packaging that call for a classic-but-forceful serif presence at medium to large sizes.
The overall tone is bold and editorial, mixing classical serif authority with a sharp, contemporary edge. The flared terminals and dramatic contrast give it a confident, attention-grabbing voice that feels premium and slightly theatrical rather than understated.
The design appears intended to deliver a powerful display serif with a carved, flared-terminal signature and high-contrast modeling, prioritizing recognizable shapes and a strong typographic color for impactful settings.
In paragraph-style setting the dark color and narrow openings create a strong, poster-like presence, with distinctive silhouette cues (notably in diagonals and curved letters) that favor impact over neutrality. The interplay of wide forms and tapered endings produces a rhythmic, carved look that stays consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
