A condensed serif with tall, columnar proportions and sturdy verticals. Strokes show moderate contrast with a clear emphasis on upright stems, while terminals broaden into flared, wedge-like endings that read as softened, bracketed serifs rather than hard slabs. Curves are tight and controlled, with compact bowls and narrow apertures that create a dense, rhythmic texture in text. The overall drawing feels crisp and disciplined, with slightly sculpted joins and subtle tapering that adds a carved, display-oriented character.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, posters, and other short-form settings where a condensed, high-impact serif is needed. It can work well for magazine mastheads, branding, and packaging that benefits from a classic, theatrical voice. In extended text, it will create a dark, compact color, so generous sizing and leading help maintain readability.
The tone is assertive and classic, evoking vintage editorial headlines and theatrical poster typography. Its narrow stance and flared terminals give it a dramatic, slightly Victorian flavor—confident, attention-seeking, and formal without feeling delicate.
The design appears aimed at delivering maximum presence in minimal horizontal space, using flared stroke endings and controlled contrast to add personality and a period-tinged sophistication. It prioritizes strong silhouette and consistent vertical rhythm for display use.
Uppercase forms maintain strong vertical alignment and consistent width, producing a uniform, billboard-like presence. Numerals and lowercase follow the same condensed logic, keeping counters tight and vertical rhythm strong, which increases impact at larger sizes while making long passages feel dense.
