A heavy, high-contrast serif with flared stroke endings and wedge-like serifs that feel carved rather than bracketed. Vertical strokes are dominant and dark, while joins and hairline-like connections sharpen into pointed, blade-shaped terminals, creating a faceted, sculptural rhythm. Capitals are broad and stately with crisp triangular notches and tapered arms; lowercase shows a tall, sturdy core with compact counters and pronounced thick–thin transitions. Numerals are bold and rounded with sharp entry/exit cuts that echo the flaring seen throughout.
Best suited to display settings where its sculpted contrast and flared terminals can be appreciated—headlines, cover lines, posters, brand marks, and packaging. It can work for short editorial subheads or pull quotes, but the dense color and sharp detailing are most effective at larger sizes.
The overall tone is assertive and theatrical, balancing classical serif formality with a fashion-forward, poster-like punch. Its sharp flares and chiseled contrast give it a refined yet edgy personality that reads as premium and attention-seeking rather than neutral.
Likely intended as a contemporary display serif that borrows from incised and calligraphic traditions, amplifying contrast and flared endings to produce a bold, premium look with strong shelf and page impact.
The design relies on distinctive internal cuts and angled terminals, which create strong texture in massed text and make individual words feel tightly knit. Round letters (O, C, G, o, e) show a consistent pattern of thick vertical emphasis and tapered transitions, helping maintain cohesion across sizes.
