A condensed serif with tall, compact proportions and a steady, moderately contrasted stroke. The serifs are subtly flared and bracketed, with stems that broaden into the terminals rather than ending in sharp slabs, giving the design a carved, poster-like solidity. Curves are tight and controlled, counters are relatively narrow, and the overall rhythm reads vertical and structured. Numerals and capitals share the same compact, upright stance, producing a dense, emphatic line of text.
Best suited for headlines, subheads, and short blocks of text where a condensed, high-impact serif is desired. It can work well in editorial layouts, packaging fronts, labels, and branding wordmarks that benefit from a compact footprint and a traditional voice.
The tone is assertive and traditional, with a slightly nostalgic, letterpress-like presence. Its condensed build and flared endings evoke editorial and poster typography—confident, no-nonsense, and a bit industrial—while still retaining a classic serif formality.
The design appears intended to deliver strong, space-efficient typography with a classic serif identity, using flared terminals to add warmth and personality while maintaining a disciplined, condensed silhouette for display-driven communication.
The face shows clear differentiation between thick stems and finer joins without becoming delicate, keeping forms sturdy at display sizes. The condensed spacing and narrow counters increase impact but can feel tightly packed in longer passages unless given generous tracking and leading.
