A punchy display serif with strong thick–thin modulation and sculpted, wedge-like terminals. Stems broaden subtly toward the ends, and the serif treatment feels bracketed and flared rather than slabby, giving letters a carved, calligraphic finish. Proportions lean slightly condensed in the capitals with sturdy verticals, while lowercase forms are compact with round, weighty bowls and tight apertures in letters like a, e, and s. Numerals are robust and high-contrast, with clear silhouettes and crisp joins that keep them readable at larger sizes.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and cover typography where the high-contrast strokes and flared terminals can be appreciated. It can also work for short editorial passages or front-matter at comfortable sizes, especially in print-oriented layouts that benefit from a classic serif voice.
The overall tone is authoritative and editorial, with a traditional, print-forward presence. Its sharp contrast and flared endings add drama and polish, suggesting heritage and craft rather than minimalism. The texture is confident and emphatic, suited to statements and headlines.
Likely designed as a contemporary take on a traditional high-contrast serif, emphasizing flared terminals and sculpted details to create impact without losing typographic familiarity. The intention appears to balance classic editorial credibility with a more theatrical, display-ready sharpness.
The design shows a consistent rhythm of vertical stress and tapered endings across both cases, helping lines of text feel cohesive in larger settings. The uppercase has a stately, poster-like gravity, while the lowercase maintains strong identity through pronounced terminals and compact counters.
