A heavy, high-impact serif with sculpted, tapering strokes that flare into pronounced terminals and bracketed serifs. Curves are full and rounded while joins and counters are crisply cut, creating a strong light–dark rhythm. The letterforms lean on vertical emphasis with sturdy stems, compact apertures, and a slightly angular, chiseled finish in places (notably in diagonals and arm terminals). Numerals and capitals read as display-oriented, with confident proportions and strong contrast that holds up at large sizes.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and editorial display work where its strong contrast and flared terminals can be appreciated. It can also support branding and packaging that wants a traditional, premium feel, especially in short phrases, titles, and logotype-style settings.
The overall tone is authoritative and editorial, evoking classic print typography with a dramatic, almost engraved presence. Its bold color and sharp, flared detailing give it a formal, headline-forward voice that feels traditional but assertive rather than delicate.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic serif voice with heightened drama and presence by combining robust weight, sharp terminal shaping, and flared stroke endings. It prioritizes impact and character in display settings while maintaining recognizable, conventional letter structures for clear reading.
Round letters show deep, clean counters and a strong inner tension, while diagonals in characters like V, W, X, and Y end in crisp wedge-like terminals that add energy. The lowercase maintains a solid, weighty texture in text, with a consistent flare language that ties bowls, stems, and serifs together into a cohesive rhythm.
