A bold, high-contrast serif with sharply tapered hairlines and weighty vertical stems, set on an upright axis. Serifs are bracketed yet crisp, with wedge-like and slightly flared terminals that give strokes a carved, sculptural feel. Round forms (O, C, G) show strong thick–thin modulation, while horizontals are comparatively fine and the overall rhythm is tight and assertive. Lowercase forms appear compact and sturdy, with prominent ball/teardrop details in places (notably on the a and in the i/j dots) and firmly shaped, traditional proportions across capitals and figures.
Best suited to headlines, magazine typography, book covers, and promotional graphics where a strong serif presence is desired. It can also support premium branding and packaging when used at display sizes, pairing well with simpler sans companions for hierarchy and balance.
The overall tone is formal and editorial, combining traditional bookish cues with a more theatrical, high-drama finish from the sharp serifs and pronounced contrast. It reads as confident and authoritative, with a slightly ornamental edge that feels suitable for display-led typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic serif foundation with heightened contrast and sharper, more decorative finishing, creating a commanding display voice that still retains familiar editorial structure.
In text settings the dense color and energetic contrast create strong emphasis, especially in capitals; spacing and stroke contrast make it most comfortable at larger sizes where the fine hairlines and details can breathe. Numerals are bold and sturdy, matching the heavy typographic color of the uppercase.
