A bold, forward-leaning serif with calligraphic construction and flared terminals. Strokes show a lively, brush-like modulation: thick, rounded main stems taper into sharp wedge serifs and pointed joins, creating a dynamic, carved-ink rhythm. Counters are generous and mostly oval, with energetic diagonals in letters like K, V, W, X, and Y. The lowercase features a large, dark footprint with compact apertures and a strongly shaped italic ‘a’ and ‘g’, while figures are weighty and slightly angled, echoing the same flared, wedge-ended detailing.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, posters, and branding where its italic drive and flared wedge serifs can be appreciated. It also works well for magazine-style editorial typography, packaging, and promotional graphics that benefit from a bold, traditional-but-energetic serif presence.
The overall tone feels assertive and high-energy, combining vintage print warmth with a sporty, headline-driven punch. Its sharp wedges and sweeping italic motion suggest drama and momentum rather than neutrality, giving text a confident, editorial voice.
The letterforms appear designed to merge classic serif conventions with a more kinetic, calligraphic italic attitude. The flared endings and sharpened joins emphasize motion and impact, aiming for strong display readability with a distinctive, crafted texture.
The design balances heavy color with crisp, pointed finishing: many terminals end in triangular wedges, and curves often resolve into subtly sharpened tips. Spacing appears built for display sizes, where the sculpted serifs and lively stroke endings read as intentional texture rather than noise.
