A heavy serif with pronounced diagonal stress and a consistent left-leaning slant across capitals, lowercase, and figures. Strokes show strong thick–thin modulation, with stems and diagonals terminating in flared, wedge-like serifs that often feel softly bracketed into the main strokes. Curves are full and weighty, counters are relatively compact, and joins create a lively, slightly irregular rhythm that reads as intentionally stylized rather than strictly rational. The numerals and capitals maintain the same emphatic contrast and angled energy, giving the whole set a cohesive, poster-forward texture.
Best suited to headlines, editorial display, posters, and cover typography where its bold texture and slanted momentum can carry a layout. It can also work well for branding and packaging that wants a vintage-leaning, characterful serif voice with strong shelf impact.
The overall tone is theatrical and attention-seeking, blending a classic serif heritage with a playful, off-kilter motion. Its slanted stance and sharp, flaring endings add swagger and a touch of eccentricity, making text feel animated and headline-like even at moderate sizes.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic serif impression with amplified contrast, a persistent slant, and flared terminals to create a distinctive, energetic display personality. It prioritizes expressive silhouette and typographic color over neutral readability, aiming for memorable, stylized emphasis in prominent sizes.
In running text the dense weight and tight internal spaces create a dark, punchy color, while the consistent slant and flared terminals keep forms from feeling static. The combination of wide proportions and high contrast produces strong word shapes but can feel busy in long passages, favoring shorter blocks and display settings.
