This typeface is a high-contrast serif with pronounced wedge-like, flared terminals and strongly modeled strokes. Serifs read as sharp, triangular wedges with noticeable bracketing into the stems, giving the letters a carved, sculptural feel. Curves are full and taut, with crisp joins and pointed apexes (notably in A, V, W, and the diagonals of K and X). The lowercase shows compact, sturdy forms with a two-storey a, a looped g, and a narrow, angled t with a small crossbar; overall spacing and rhythm feel firm and print-oriented.
It performs best in display and headline contexts where the wedge terminals and contrast can be appreciated—magazine and newspaper-style titling, book covers, poster typography, and section openers. In longer passages it can work for short blocks or pull quotes, especially when a classic, high-impact voice is desired.
The font conveys a confident, traditional tone with a touch of drama from its sharp wedges and stark thick–thin transitions. It feels editorial and literary—suited to emphatic, refined messaging rather than casual or minimalist design.
The design appears intended to blend classical serif proportions with a more expressive, flared finishing language, emphasizing strong silhouettes and crisp, print-like contrast. It aims to deliver authority and elegance while remaining bold enough for prominent typographic roles.
Capitals are particularly commanding, with broad bowls and crisp finishing strokes that create strong word shapes at larger sizes. Numerals share the same chiseled contrast and pointed terminals, producing a cohesive, formal texture across mixed alphanumeric settings.
