A tall, condensed serif with pronounced vertical stress and crisp, high-contrast stroke modulation. The stems finish in tapered, flared terminals that read like sharpened wedges rather than bracketed slabs, giving the outlines a chiseled, sculptural look. Counters are tight and vertical, with narrow apertures and a strongly upright rhythm. Overall spacing appears compact, producing a dense, emphatic texture in text while maintaining clear silhouette distinction in capitals and numerals.
Best suited to headlines, decks, pull quotes, and short editorial blocks where a compact width and striking contrast create impact. It can also serve luxury-oriented branding and packaging typography, especially when space is limited and a tall, elegant voice is desired.
The font conveys a dramatic, editorial tone—confident, polished, and slightly theatrical. Its sharp terminals and compressed proportions feel fashion-forward and premium, with a classic serif backbone that keeps it authoritative rather than playful.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence in a narrow footprint, combining classical serif structure with flared, sharpened terminals for a refined but assertive display character. Its consistent vertical rhythm and sculpted contrast suggest a focus on high-impact typography for contemporary editorial and brand settings.
In running text the condensed width creates strong vertical striping, and the high contrast makes joins and terminals visually prominent. The numerals follow the same narrow, upright stance, supporting strong display hierarchies and punchy headings.
