A condensed display face built from straight strokes and sharp, faceted joins, producing an almost carved look where curves are replaced by planar angles. Strokes are consistently heavy and mostly even in thickness, with pointed terminals and narrow internal counters that emphasize verticality. The rhythm is tight and tall, with compact sidebearings and a strong up-and-down texture that reads as crisp and aggressive at larger sizes.
Best used for short, high-impact settings such as posters, titles, packaging callouts, and logo/wordmark exploration where the angular detailing can be appreciated. It can also work for themed materials—horror, fantasy, metal, or vintage noir—when set with generous size and careful tracking to avoid crowding.
The overall tone is dark and theatrical, blending a medieval/gothic sensibility with a modern, graphic sharpness. Its spiky silhouettes and chiseled geometry suggest mystery and intensity, making it feel suited to dramatic or ominous themes rather than neutral everyday text.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum character in a compact width by replacing traditional curves with sharp planes, creating a stylized, carved texture. It prioritizes atmosphere and silhouette over long-form readability, aiming for a distinctive, emblematic voice in display typography.
Distinctive wedge-like cuts and angular shoulders give many letters a blade-like profile, and the narrow apertures and counters can fill in visually at small sizes or in dense settings. The numerals and lowercase follow the same faceted construction, keeping the set cohesive and poster-oriented.
