A very heavy, wide serif with flared stroke endings and softly bracketed serifs that feel carved rather than mechanically slabbed. The design leans on broad, rounded forms and generous internal counters, with subtle contrast that keeps the black shapes lively at large sizes. Curves are full and slightly softened, while many joins and terminals show gentle swelling, producing a robust, sculpted rhythm. Overall spacing reads open for such a heavy weight, and the numerals match the letters with similarly chunky, stable silhouettes.
Best suited to headlines and short-to-medium display text where its heavy color and flared detailing can be appreciated. It works well for posters, packaging, and brand marks that need a confident, retro-leaning voice, and can also serve as an attention-grabbing serif for book covers and editorial section titles.
The tone is bold and approachable, with a vintage, display-oriented personality that suggests classic signage and mid-century editorial titling. Its softened flares and rounded forms keep it from feeling severe, giving it a warm, slightly playful confidence.
The design appears intended as an impactful display serif that combines strong, wide proportions with flared, sculptural endings to create a distinctive silhouette. It aims to deliver high visual presence while staying friendly and readable through open counters and softened detailing.
The face maintains strong consistency between uppercase, lowercase, and figures, with prominent, distinctive flaring that becomes a key identifying detail in text. The heavy strokes and wide stance prioritize impact and shape recognition over delicate refinement, making the design feel sturdy and expressive.
