A heavy, high-contrast serif with sharp, flared terminals and pronounced triangular/bracketed serifs that create a chiseled silhouette. Curves are tightly drawn with deep ink traps and narrow internal counters in letters like B, P, and a, while vertical stems stay dominant and crisp. Many joins and terminals resolve into wedge-like points, and several forms show subtle asymmetry and tapering that adds motion (notably in S, a, and g). Spacing and rhythm feel compact and punchy, designed to hold together as dense black text while keeping the hairline cuts and notches clearly visible at display sizes.
Best suited to display applications such as headlines, poster typography, book covers, and mastheads where its sharp terminals and contrast can read clearly. It can also work for editorial pull quotes or short passages at larger sizes when you want a dense, authoritative texture and a classic, high-impact voice.
The tone is bold and theatrical with an old-style, print-forward confidence. Its sharp wedges, strong contrast, and sculpted details evoke a classic editorial or bookish seriousness, leaning more dramatic than neutral. Overall it reads as assertive and formal, with a slightly eccentric, ornamental edge.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through strong contrast and sculpted serif detailing, blending traditional serif proportions with flared, wedge-like terminals for a carved, engraved feel. Its compact counters and lively cuts suggest an emphasis on dramatic texture and recognizable personality in display typography.
The uppercase has strong presence and sturdy structure, while the lowercase introduces more personality through curved bowls and pointed terminals. Numerals echo the same carved, high-contrast language, with angular cuts and prominent top serifs that keep them visually consistent with the text. In paragraph setting, the dense color and distinctive notches create a lively texture that favors larger sizes.
