A condensed serif with tall proportions, tight sidebearings, and a strongly vertical rhythm. Strokes feel weighty yet controlled, with subtly tapered terminals and sharp, bracketless-looking wedge serifs that create a crisp silhouette. Curves are narrow and somewhat squarish in their counters, while joins and apertures are kept tight, giving letters a compact, columnar presence. The lowercase maintains a straightforward, readable structure with sturdy stems and small, economical counters, and the numerals echo the same upright, compressed stance.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, pull quotes, posters, and packaging where a condensed, high-impact voice is needed. It can also work for magazine-style editorial typography and branding systems that rely on narrow columns and strong typographic contrast within layouts.
The overall tone is assertive and dramatic, balancing classic editorial seriousness with a slightly theatrical, poster-like intensity. Its narrow build and sharp serifs lend a vintage flavor reminiscent of display typography used for headlines and announcements.
Likely designed to deliver maximum presence in minimal horizontal space, pairing a traditional serif vocabulary with a compressed, display-forward build for tight layouts and attention-grabbing typographic hierarchy.
Capitals are especially tall and commanding, producing a strong skyline in all-caps settings. In text, the compressed forms and dense color create a punchy texture that favors emphasis and hierarchy over relaxed long-form comfort.
