A display-forward Latin design with assertive, blocky masses and sharply tapered thinning that creates a carved, engraved rhythm. Strokes are predominantly straight and upright, with flare-like terminals and pointed wedge joins that produce crisp internal corners and strong vertical emphasis. Counters are relatively compact in the uppercase, while the lowercase keeps a straightforward, workmanlike structure with a single-storey a and g and a sturdy, vertical stress. Numerals echo the same sculpted contrast, alternating heavy slabs with hairline-like connections for a dramatic silhouette.
This font is well suited to headlines, magazine mastheads, campaign posters, and brand marks where a dramatic, sculpted contrast can carry the composition. It also fits premium packaging and short, high-impact typographic statements that benefit from a bold silhouette and distinctive flared terminals.
The overall tone feels theatrical and fashion-oriented, combining classic print authority with a slightly retro, poster-era confidence. Its sharp contrast and flared detailing suggest prestige and formality, while the broad proportions keep it punchy and attention grabbing.
The letterforms appear designed to deliver maximum visual impact through sculpted contrast and broad proportions, aiming for an editorial display voice that feels carved and authoritative. The consistent wedge-and-taper detailing suggests an intention to evoke classic print and engraved signage while remaining clean and contemporary in structure.
The design reads best when allowed room to breathe: the tight counters and abrupt thinning make texture more animated at larger sizes, where the wedge terminals and tapered joins become a defining feature. In longer settings the strong contrast can create a lively, uneven color that is most effective when used intentionally.
