A very heavy, right-leaning serif with pronounced flared stroke endings and sharp, wedge-like serifs. The design shows strong thick–thin modulation with tapered joins and pointed, calligraphic-looking terminals, producing a lively rhythm despite the dense color. Counters are relatively compact, apertures tend to be tight, and several letters feature bulb/teardrop forms at terminals (notably in lowercase like g, j, y), adding texture at display sizes. Numerals follow the same weighty, sculpted logic, with curving bowls and crisp entry/exit strokes that keep the set visually cohesive.
Best suited to display applications such as headlines, cover lines, posters, and bold brand marks where its flared serifs and high-contrast shaping can be appreciated. It can also work for short editorial callouts, packaging titles, and event or sports-style promotions where a forceful, kinetic voice is desired.
The tone is bold and theatrical, mixing classic print authority with a slightly sporty, headline-driven energy. Its strong slant and sharp serif activity make it feel dynamic and attention-seeking, with a retro/editorial flavor suited to expressive messaging rather than quiet neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in display settings by combining a strong italic posture with sculpted, flared serifs and high-contrast modulation. Its letterforms prioritize gesture and presence, aiming for a distinctive, energetic serif voice that stands apart from more restrained text faces.
At larger sizes the interior detailing and flared endings read as intentional craftsmanship; at smaller sizes the tight apertures and dense strokes may begin to close up, especially in text with many curves and diagonals. The italic construction feels integral to the design (not merely mechanically slanted), with consistent angled stress and energetic entry strokes across the alphabet.
