A heavy, high-contrast serif with sculpted, flaring stroke endings and wedge-like serifs that feel carved rather than bracketed. Strokes swell and taper decisively, creating strong light–dark rhythm across verticals and curves. Counters are compact and the joins are tight, with rounded bowls and occasional ball terminals (notably in lowercase like a/g) adding a slightly ornamental, ink-trap-like softness to otherwise sharp transitions. The overall texture is dense and poster-ready, while maintaining clear letter differentiation in both caps and lowercase.
Best suited to large sizes where its contrast and flared details can show clearly—headlines, posters, book or album covers, and branding systems that need a confident, classic display serif. It can also work for short pull quotes or section headers, but the dense texture suggests avoiding long passages at smaller sizes.
The tone is bold and commanding, with a classic display sensibility that reads as theatrical and slightly vintage. Its dramatic contrast and sculpted terminals give it a premium, headline-forward voice suited to attention-grabbing messaging rather than quiet body text.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through pronounced contrast and expressive, flared stroke endings, blending classical serif structure with a more sculptural, decorative finish. It aims to feel authoritative and refined while remaining eye-catching in display settings.
Capitals are broad and stable with strong vertical emphasis, while the lowercase introduces more personality through rounded terminals and varied stroke flare. Numerals appear sturdy and stylized, matching the font’s carved, high-impact rhythm and reinforcing a distinctive, editorial display character.
