A condensed, right-slanted serif with sturdy, low-contrast strokes and pronounced flared/wedge terminals. The serifs feel carved and slightly bracketed, with a clear calligraphic influence in the way strokes swell into sharp endings. Counters are compact and rounded, curves are taut, and overall spacing is fairly tight, producing a dense, forward-leaning rhythm. Numerals and caps carry the same assertive, sculpted terminals, keeping the texture consistent across the set.
Well-suited to headlines, subheads, and short editorial callouts where a dense, impactful texture is desirable. It can work effectively for sports or event branding, packaging, and cover typography, especially where a vintage-meets-modern emphasis is needed. In text settings, it will perform best in larger sizes and shorter runs.
The overall tone is confident and energetic, with a vintage, display-forward presence. Its slanted posture and flared terminals create a sense of motion and emphasis, while the heavy color and condensed fit add authority and impact.
The font appears designed to deliver high-impact, space-efficient typography with a distinctive flared-serif signature. Its condensed proportions and emphatic terminals suggest an intention to combine traditional serif cues with a more kinetic, display-oriented voice.
The design reads best as a headline face: its compact apertures and strong terminals build a dark, cohesive typographic color that can feel intense in long passages. The italic construction appears integral rather than a simple oblique, with terminals and joins shaped to maintain crispness at larger sizes.
