A condensed serif with sharply defined, flared stroke endings and pointed wedge-like serifs. Stems are predominantly vertical with moderate contrast, giving a crisp, high-ink rhythm without becoming overly delicate. The caps are tall and narrow, and the lowercase follows with similarly tight proportions, producing an economical line length and a strong vertical texture. Curves are taut and controlled, and joins feel clean and decisive, creating a compact, structured typographic color in text.
This font is well suited to editorial headlines, magazine titles, and book cover typography where a condensed footprint and a formal serif voice are desirable. It can also work for posters and branding that needs a traditional, authoritative feel while conserving horizontal space.
The overall tone is formal and literary, with a slightly dramatic, old-world sharpness that reads as authoritative rather than ornamental. Its narrow stance and crisp flare convey seriousness and refinement suited to traditional, editorial contexts.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic serif impression in a condensed width, using flared terminals and pointed serifs to maintain presence and legibility while keeping the overall silhouette narrow and efficient.
The letterforms emphasize verticality and compact spacing, which can make headlines feel imposing and tightly set. Numerals match the same condensed, sharp-serif language, supporting consistent typographic voice across mixed text and display.
