A condensed serif with tall proportions and compact letterforms, built around crisp vertical stress and modest stroke modulation. Serifs are finely bracketed and sharp, with tapered terminals that keep counters open despite the narrow set. Round letters are slightly compressed, and joins stay clean and controlled, giving the design a taut, economical rhythm. The lowercase shows traditional forms (two-storey a and g) and a relatively even, readable texture for such a tight width.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, and editorial typography where space economy matters and a traditional serif voice is desired. It can also work for book jackets, posters, and pull quotes, particularly when a condensed, formal texture helps establish hierarchy and impact.
The overall tone is classic and editorial, with a reserved, authoritative feel. Its narrow stance and crisp finishing give it a slightly severe, old-style bookish character rather than a soft or friendly one.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional serif reading voice in a space-saving, display-leaning width, balancing crisp detail with enough openness to remain legible. Its proportions and restrained contrast suggest an emphasis on efficient setting and a composed, authoritative typographic presence.
Capitals appear especially tall and stately, with narrow bowls and compact spacing that emphasize verticality. Numerals follow the same condensed, high-contrast logic, reading clearly at display sizes and maintaining a consistent color alongside text.
