A heavy serif design with broad proportions and subtly flared stroke endings that give many terminals a gently wedge-like finish. Strokes show moderate contrast, with rounded transitions at curves and joins that keep the texture smooth despite the weight. The serifs are compact and bracketed, and several letters show slightly sculpted, ink-trap-like notches where strokes meet (notably in bowls and joins), adding definition at display sizes. Counters are generally generous and the overall rhythm is steady, producing a dark, even typographic color in text.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, and short blocks of text where its weight and flared finishing can be appreciated. It works well for editorial display, brand wordmarks, packaging, and promotional materials that need a classic-but-modern serif voice with strong impact.
The font reads as bold and assured, mixing traditional serif cues with a softened, almost carved or printed character. Its flared details and rounded shaping lend warmth and approachability, while the weight and width project authority and headline punch.
The design appears intended to deliver high-impact serif typography with a contemporary softness—pairing wide, bold letterforms with subtle flare and sculpted joins to stay readable, distinctive, and polished in display use.
Figures are robust and highly legible with clear silhouettes, matching the letterforms’ broad stance. The lowercase has a sturdy, compact feel in bowls and shoulders, helping maintain readability in dense settings, while the uppercase carries a strong, poster-like presence.
