A condensed italic slab serif with crisp, flat-ended serifs and a largely even stroke weight. The letterforms are tall and narrow with tight interior spaces, giving a compact vertical rhythm. Curves are relatively restrained and drawn with a controlled, upright geometry even under the slant, while counters stay small and clean. Terminals and serifs read as blunt and squared, producing a sturdy, engineered texture in text.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, and short blocks of copy where a compact footprint and strong presence are needed. It can work well for posters, packaging, labels, and signage that benefit from an industrial or retro editorial tone, especially when horizontal space is limited.
The overall tone feels utilitarian and assertive, with an industrial, workmanlike flavor that nods to vintage editorial and signage typography. Its narrow, slanted stance adds urgency and motion without becoming decorative, keeping the voice direct and functional.
The design appears intended to deliver a space-saving, high-impact italic slab serif with robust, squared detailing. It prioritizes a strong typographic color and a disciplined, mechanical rhythm for display and editorial settings.
In running text, the tight proportions and firm serifs create strong vertical striping and a dark, consistent color. The numerals and capitals maintain the same compressed, squared-off character as the lowercase, reinforcing a cohesive, mechanical look.
