A heavy, high-contrast serif with sculpted, flaring stroke endings and wedge-like serifs that feel carved rather than bracketed. The letterforms alternate between broad vertical masses and tight, pinched joins, creating a strong light–dark rhythm. Curves are smooth but taut, with angled stress in rounds and pronounced tapering into terminals; several characters show small ball-like terminals (notably in the lowercase). Overall proportions are compact and sturdy, with emphatic capitals and slightly narrower, lively lowercase forms that keep the texture dense and impactful in text.
Best suited for headlines and short-to-medium display text where its sculpted contrast and distinctive terminals can be appreciated—magazine features, book covers, posters, packaging, and branding wordmarks. It can also work for pull quotes or section headers when you want a dense, authoritative typographic voice.
The tone is bold and commanding with a distinctly vintage, poster-ready flavor. Its sharp tapers and flared terminals add drama and a slightly exotic, display-forward personality, suggesting classic editorial headlines and theatrical or cinematic titling.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through a carved, flared serif aesthetic—combining classic serif authority with a more expressive, tapered finish. It prioritizes strong silhouettes, dramatic contrast, and a memorable texture for display settings.
Numerals are chunky and stylized, matching the flared, tapered logic of the letters; the 2 and 3 in particular lean on strong curves and pointed terminals for extra character. The sample text shows a dark, even color at larger sizes, with distinctive silhouettes that remain legible while emphasizing personality over neutrality.
