A sculpted serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and strongly bracketed, flaring serifs. Stems are weighty and confident, while joins and terminals show sharp, wedge-like cuts that create crisp interior corners and a slightly engraved look. Counters are moderately open, with round forms kept taut and compact; the lowercase shows sturdy, somewhat condensed structures and a clear, traditional rhythm. Numerals and capitals carry the same assertive contrast and serif shaping, giving the design a cohesive, display-leaning texture even in paragraph settings.
Best suited for headlines, subheads, and prominent editorial typography where contrast and serif detail can be appreciated. It can also work for book covers, packaging, and brand wordmarks that benefit from a classic, high-impact serif voice; for extended small-size text it will be more successful with generous size and leading to preserve the sharp details.
The overall tone is authoritative and traditional, with a slightly theatrical edge from the sharp terminals and emphatic contrast. It reads as classic and editorial—suited to messaging that wants to feel established, confident, and a bit ceremonious.
The design appears intended to modernize a conventional text-serif foundation with more dramatic contrast and sharply carved terminals, producing a stately, attention-grabbing face that still feels rooted in classical proportions.
Spacing appears intentionally tight for a dense, impactful color, and the distinctive cut-in notches at joins/terminals add bite and definition at larger sizes. The italic is not shown; all samples appear roman/upright.
