A condensed, high-contrast serif with tall proportions and pronounced thick-to-thin modulation. Serifs are fine and crisp, often hairline-like, with a slightly calligraphic stress that gives rounds (C, G, O, e) a sculpted, pinched feel. Vertical stems dominate, while joins and terminals stay sharp and controlled, producing a taut rhythm in text. The overall spacing reads compact and column-friendly, with distinctive, characterful curves and narrow counters.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, and large-format copy where its narrow width and sharp contrast can add personality without sacrificing structure. It works particularly well in editorial layouts, fashion or cultural posters, and book-cover titling where a refined, dramatic serif texture is desirable.
The font conveys an elegant, slightly dramatic tone—refined and fashion-forward rather than neutral. Its narrow stance and razor-thin detailing suggest sophistication and a curated, editorial sensibility, with a touch of vintage theatricality.
The design appears intended to deliver a distinctive condensed serif voice that feels classic yet stylized, emphasizing verticality, sharp hairlines, and sculpted curves for impactful display typography and tight-column composition.
The numerals follow the same condensed, high-contrast logic, with slender figures and delicate terminals that suit display settings. In longer sample text, the strong vertical emphasis and tight fit create a dense, stylish texture that remains crisp but can feel intense at smaller sizes due to the thin hairlines.
