A stylized display sans with heavy, compact letterforms built from straight stems and faceted, pointed joins. Curves are treated as segmented arches and teardrop-like bowls, giving many characters a cut, chiseled silhouette rather than smooth geometry. Counters are generally small and enclosed, terminals often come to sharp wedges, and several capitals feature distinctive peaked or arched tops that reinforce a vertical, architectural rhythm. Overall spacing and widths vary by character, creating a lively, hand-forged cadence across words and lines.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as posters, packaging headlines, game and film titles, chapter heads, and logo wordmarks where its angular silhouette can be appreciated. It performs especially well in fantasy, historical, and gothic-themed branding, and in large sizes for signage-style statements.
The tone is medieval and dramatic, evoking gothic signage, fantasy titles, and heraldic motifs. Its sharp angles and arched constructions feel ceremonial and authoritative, with a slightly ominous, storybook mood that reads as historic rather than modern.
The design appears intended to provide a decorative, gothic-inflected alternative to conventional sans display faces, using arched tops and pointed, chiseled terminals to suggest carved lettering while keeping the overall construction simple and bold for strong legibility at headline scale.
The forms remain consistently monoline in spirit, but the design leans on carved-looking cut-ins, pointed shoulders, and diamond-like details (notably in some lowercase stems and punctuation) to create texture at display sizes. Numerals follow the same faceted logic with strong silhouettes suited to headings rather than dense text.
