A robust, high-contrast roman with pronounced thick–thin transitions and a slightly sculpted, flared finish to many terminals. Stems tend to feel sturdy and vertical, while joins and curves show a subtle calligraphic modulation that gives counters a lively, carved look. The uppercase forms are broad-shouldered and stable, with crisp internal shapes and confident spacing; the lowercase carries the same weighty presence with rounded bowls and compact apertures. Numerals are similarly strong and display-oriented, with clear silhouettes and noticeable contrast between main strokes and hairline-like joins.
Best suited to headlines, titles, and short passages where its contrast and strong presence can be appreciated. It works well for magazine and book-cover typography, branding wordmarks, and poster-style statements, particularly when paired with a quieter companion face for body text.
The overall tone is confident and editorial, evoking classic print typography with a theatrical edge. Its high-contrast rhythm and flared terminals add a sense of gravitas and polish, making the text feel assertive rather than casual.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, editorial voice that blends classic roman structure with pronounced contrast and subtly flared terminals for added character at display sizes.
In the sample text, the heavy color and contrast create a dense texture that reads best with generous line spacing and at medium-to-large sizes. The flared terminals and wedge-like endings help maintain clarity in bold settings, especially in capitals and rounded characters.
