A very heavy, right-leaning serif display face with sharply tapered, flared terminals and strong thick–thin modulation. Strokes often swell into wedge-like endings, creating a chiseled silhouette and a distinctly sculptural rhythm. Letterforms mix rounded bowls with abrupt triangular cuts and pointed joins, yielding lively, uneven textures in words. Counters are generally compact, the baseline feel is slightly restless, and the overall color is dark and commanding even at moderate sizes.
Best suited to headlines and short passages where its strong silhouettes and animated stroke endings can be appreciated—posters, titles, branding marks, packaging, and editorial openers. It benefits from generous tracking and comfortable line spacing, and it is less appropriate for dense body text where the dark color and sharp internal cuts can crowd counters.
The tone is assertive and theatrical, with a vintage-showcard energy and a slightly mischievous eccentricity. Its sharp wedges and swelling terminals give it a dramatic, poster-like presence that feels performative rather than reserved.
The design appears intended as a statement display serif that blends classic serif structure with exaggerated flaring and wedge terminals to create impact. Its emphasis on contrast, slant, and sculpted endings suggests a goal of producing distinctive, memorable word shapes for attention-grabbing typography.
Uppercase forms show pronounced display detailing—especially in diagonals and bowls—while lowercase keeps the same wedge-terminal logic, producing distinctive word shapes. Numerals follow the same flared, high-contrast treatment, reading best when given space to breathe.
