A condensed display serif with extreme thick–thin modulation and sharply tapered, wedge-like terminals. Vertical stems dominate the texture, while cross-strokes and joins pinch into hairlines, creating a crisp, sculpted rhythm. Serifs read as pointed, incised flares rather than brackets, and many letters show blade-like beaks and needle ends that heighten the silhouette. Curves are smooth but pulled tight, giving bowls and shoulders a tense, elongated profile and an overall poster-ready presence.
Best suited to headlines, magazine covers, mastheads, posters, and brand marks where a tall, cutting serif voice is desired. It can also work for upscale packaging and event materials when set at generous sizes, allowing the hairlines and tapered terminals to remain clear.
The tone is high-drama and fashion-forward, mixing refinement with a slightly menacing, theatrical edge. Its razor contrast and spiked endings evoke luxury/editorial typography with a hint of gothic flair, aiming for impact and sophistication rather than neutrality.
Likely designed as an attention-grabbing display serif that leverages exaggerated contrast and pointed, chiseled terminals to create a distinctive, luxe voice. The intent appears to be memorable impact in editorial and branding contexts, prioritizing silhouette and texture over unobtrusive text readability.
In longer lines the strong vertical emphasis produces a striped texture, and the sharp terminals become a defining motif. The figures and capitals feel especially display-oriented, with narrow counters and striking hairline details that will read best when given room and size.
