A heavy, right-leaning serif with pronounced flared stroke endings and beaked, wedge-like terminals that give edges a chiseled look. Letterforms are broad and compactly fit, with sturdy verticals and subtly narrowed joins that create small notches and sharp interior corners. Curves are full and rounded but often finish in pointed, angled cuts, producing a crisp rhythm across the alphabet. Numerals are similarly weighty and sculpted, with bold bowls and tapered endings that maintain the font’s strong, forward-leaning texture.
Well-suited for bold headlines, poster typography, and branding moments that need impact and speed. It can also work on packaging and promotional graphics where a retro-energetic, display serif voice helps text stand out in short bursts.
The overall tone is loud, punchy, and kinetic, combining vintage display swagger with an athletic, headline-driven urgency. Its sharp terminals and aggressive slant read as confident and promotional rather than literary or delicate.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence with a distinctive flared-serif silhouette, using angled cuts and beaked terminals to create momentum and a memorable word-shape. It prioritizes display impact and stylistic character over quiet, long-form neutrality.
The italic angle is integral to the construction (not simply obliqued), with terminals and serifs consistently angled to reinforce motion. Tight counters in letters like a, e, and s and the dense stroke mass suggest best performance at larger sizes where the sculpted details can stay clear.
