A heavy, italic serif with pronounced flared terminals and softly bracketed serifs that widen as strokes meet their endings. The forms are broad and generously proportioned, with a tall lowercase that keeps counters open despite the dense weight. Curves are full and rounded, joins are smooth, and the overall rhythm leans forward with consistent oblique stress. Letters show a lively, slightly calligraphic shaping—noticeable in the rounded bowls and the tapered, expanding stroke ends—while maintaining a sturdy, even color across words.
Best suited to display settings such as headlines, posters, and impactful editorial callouts where the heavy strokes and flared terminals can be appreciated. It can also work well for bold branding and packaging that benefits from a confident, retro-leaning italic voice, while smaller text will require ample size and spacing to avoid darkening.
The tone is bold and assertive, with a classic, slightly vintage flavor that feels at home in expressive headlines. Its forward slant and swelling terminals add motion and warmth, giving text a punchy, energetic presence rather than a quiet, bookish one.
The design appears intended to blend classic serif structure with a dynamic italic stance and attention-grabbing weight, using flared endings to add personality and a sense of speed. It prioritizes bold legibility and distinctive word shapes for display typography over quiet neutrality.
The numerals and capitals match the same broad, weighty construction, producing a strong headline texture. The italic angle is substantial but controlled, and the flared endings create a distinctive silhouette at larger sizes where the swelling terminals read clearly.
