This typeface uses broad proportions with heavy verticals and pronounced thick–thin modulation that reads as a contrasted, display-oriented roman. Strokes terminate in subtle bracketed, serif-like flares and wedges, giving the forms a carved, engraved finish despite the overall clean silhouette. Counters are relatively generous for the weight, while joins and curves are smooth and controlled, producing a steady rhythm in both capitals and lowercase. Numerals are sturdy and open, with clear shapes and confident horizontal cuts.
Best suited for headlines, deck copy, pull quotes, and poster typography where its broad proportions and contrasted strokes can read clearly and feel intentional. It can also work well in branding and packaging that want a refined, traditional voice with strong impact.
The overall tone feels editorial and authoritative, with a traditional, bookish confidence. Its wide stance and engraved contrast suggest formality and presence, lending a sense of gravitas suited to established brands or institutional messaging.
The design appears intended to combine modern clarity with a classical, engraved sensibility—using contrast and subtle flared terminals to create a distinctive, premium display texture without relying on delicate hairlines.
The sample text shows strong wordshape and a dense, emphatic texture at larger sizes, where the contrast and flared terminals become most expressive. In tighter settings the weight and width create a commanding block of text, favoring short lines and prominent hierarchy.
