A condensed serif with tall proportions, compact counters, and a strongly vertical rhythm. Strokes are mostly even, but the terminals and serifs broaden into subtle flares, giving stems a sculpted, slightly tapered feel rather than blunt slab endings. Serifs are bracketed and crisp, with sharp interior joins that keep the shapes tight and upright. The uppercase is statuesque and narrow, while the lowercase maintains a clean, controlled texture with modest ascenders and descenders and consistent spacing.
Well suited to headlines, pull quotes, and display typography where space is limited but impact is needed. It can work effectively for magazine and newspaper-style editorial layouts, book cover titling, theater or event posters, and brand marks that want a classic condensed presence. For longer passages, it is likely most comfortable at larger sizes or with generous leading due to its dense, narrow texture.
The overall tone is commanding and old-school, with a poster-like presence that feels both editorial and theatrical. Its narrow build and flared detailing evoke vintage print work—serious, slightly noir, and attention-grabbing without becoming ornamental.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong condensed voice with traditional serif cues, combining a disciplined vertical structure with flared stroke endings to create a distinctive, print-forward silhouette.
In text lines, the condensed width produces a dense, column-friendly color, while the flared terminals add a distinctive sparkle at larger sizes. Numerals and capitals read firmly and vertically, reinforcing a disciplined, headline-driven character.
