A high-contrast serif with strongly bracketed serifs, crisp hairlines, and weighty main strokes that create a pronounced vertical rhythm. Capitals are broad and stately with sharp apexes and tapered joins, while rounds (C, G, O, Q) show a clear calligraphic stress and clean, controlled curves. Lowercase forms are compact and sturdy, with prominent ball/teardrop terminals on letters like a, c, f, and y, and a sturdy two-storey g with a generous ear. Numerals are similarly high-contrast and sculpted, with distinctive modulation and flared entry/exit strokes that keep them lively in display settings.
Best suited to headlines and large-scale text where the contrast and terminals can be appreciated—magazine titles, editorial pull quotes, book covers, and poster typography. It can also work for branding and packaging that wants a classic serif voice with added punch, while long body copy may feel visually dense due to the strong contrast and heavy stems.
The overall tone is formal and editorial, projecting authority and tradition with a touch of theatrical drama. Its sharp contrasts and ornamental terminals add a refined, slightly assertive personality that feels suited to premium or institutional communication.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional serif foundation with amplified contrast and expressive terminals for impactful display typography. It balances classical proportions with attention-grabbing details, aiming for a confident, premium reading experience in titles and short passages.
Spacing appears relatively open for a bold serif, helping counters stay clear despite the heavy verticals. The italic is not shown; all samples read as upright. Small details like the hooked descenders and ball terminals contribute to a recognizably expressive texture at larger sizes.
