A compact serif with sturdy, slightly tapered strokes that broaden into flared, wedge-like terminals. Serifs are bracketed and assertive, giving verticals a grounded, carved feel while maintaining a relatively even internal rhythm. Curves are tight and controlled, with small apertures and robust joins that keep counters compact at display sizes. The overall texture is dense and emphatic, with crisp edges and a consistent, upright stance across caps, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, and other display applications where a dense, classic serif voice is desired. It can work in short editorial passages or pull quotes when set with comfortable spacing, and it’s particularly effective for book covers, announcements, and branding that calls for traditional authority with strong impact.
The face reads as authoritative and editorial, evoking traditional print typography with a slightly engraved, poster-like edge. Its weight and compact proportions create a confident, declarative tone suited to attention-getting lines. The flared endings add a touch of classic formality without feeling delicate.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional serif feel with added punch through compact proportions and flared terminals. It balances a classic editorial structure with a bolder, more poster-forward presence, prioritizing strong silhouette and consistent texture in display settings.
Lowercase forms show sturdy bowls and restrained openings (notably in c/e/s), which increases darkness and cohesion in text. Numerals and capitals share the same wedge-terminal logic, producing a unified, sign-like presence. At smaller sizes the tight counters and strong joins may benefit from generous tracking and leading.
