A heavy, compact serif with flared stems and soft, bracketed terminals that give the letterforms a sculpted, carved feel. Curves are generously rounded and counters are relatively tight, creating a dense, high-impact texture in words. The serifs read as short wedges rather than slabs, and the joins and transitions stay smooth, keeping the overall rhythm cohesive at large display sizes. Numerals share the same stout proportions and softened edges, matching the typeface’s bold, poster-like color.
Best suited to display applications where impact and personality are needed: headlines, posters, packaging, and brand marks. It also works well for short editorial bursts such as magazine openers, pull quotes, and titling where a dense, bold texture is desirable.
The tone is assertive and attention-grabbing while still feeling approachable due to the rounded curves and softened flare. It evokes a retro editorial and signage sensibility—confident, slightly nostalgic, and built to project presence.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual presence with a distinctive flared-serif signature, combining sturdy, compact proportions with softened terminals for a bold but friendly display voice.
In the sample text, the weight produces strong headline color and a tight typographic footprint; the flared terminals add character without relying on delicate contrast. The shapes remain upright and stable, with a consistent, chunky silhouette across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
