A compact, display-leaning serif with pronounced flaring at stroke terminals and firmly bracketed serifs. The letters are built from sturdy vertical stems and relatively tight interior counters, with a crisp, carved look created by wedge-like joins and subtly swelling stroke ends. Round letters such as C, O, and G feel slightly squared in their curvature, and diagonals in A, V, W, and Y are weighty and stable. Numerals match the assertive color, with clear, traditional proportions and strong foot serifs that reinforce a grounded baseline rhythm.
Best suited to headlines and short-form settings where strong typographic color is desirable, such as mastheads, posters, book covers, and packaging. It can also work for pull quotes and section openers where a classic serif voice is needed without delicate hairlines.
The overall tone is authoritative and traditional, with a confident, editorial seriousness. Its sculpted terminals and compact spacing give it a slightly theatrical, headline-forward presence that reads as established and institutional rather than casual.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional serif voice with extra punch and density, using flared terminals and bracketed serifs to create a carved, print-forward presence that stays legible and commanding at display sizes.
Texture is dense and even across words, with tight sidebearings and emphatic capitals that dominate a line. The lowercase maintains a sturdy, bookish structure, while distinctive flared ends add personality and help prevent the heavy weight from feeling purely blunt or slab-like.
