A heavy, high-ink serif with compact internal counters and a distinctly sculpted silhouette. Strokes swell and taper with a flared, brush-like logic, and many joins show soft bracketing rather than sharp, mechanical corners. The serifs read as rounded wedges and nubs that widen out of the stems, giving edges a cushioned, cut-in feel. Curves are generous and slightly irregular in rhythm, and several letters show pronounced top/bottom weight shifts that create lively dark spots across words. Numerals match the letterforms with broad bowls and tapered terminals, staying legible while maintaining the same bold, shaped texture.
Best used for short-form, high-impact typography such as posters, magazine headlines, product packaging, and brand marks where the sculpted flare and bold texture can be appreciated. It can work for subheads or pull quotes in editorial layouts when set with generous size and spacing to keep counters open and the word shapes clear.
The overall tone is classic and display-forward, with a warm, slightly retro flavor that feels at home in print-era headline typography. Its sculpted terminals and chunky presence project confidence and a touch of showmanship, while the rounded flare details keep it from feeling severe. The result is attention-grabbing and characterful, suited to designs that want personality more than neutrality.
The design appears aimed at delivering a dramatic, print-inspired display serif with flared terminals and a carved, high-contrast model. It prioritizes distinctive silhouettes and a confident typographic color for attention-grabbing titles and branding.
In text settings the dense counters and prominent terminals create a strong horizontal rhythm and a very dark typographic color, which can become imposing at smaller sizes. The exaggerated shaping makes individual letters highly distinctive, especially in curved forms, so spacing and size choices will strongly affect readability and tone.
