A condensed serif with gently flared terminals and narrow proportions that create a tall, rhythmic texture. Strokes show moderate contrast, with verticals reading firm and the joins handled smoothly, producing an even, editorial color in text. Serifs appear tapered and subtly bracketed rather than blunt, and many letters feature small teardrop-like terminals and crisp finishing. The lowercase keeps a straightforward, readable structure, while the uppercase is stately and compact, reinforcing a vertical, column-friendly silhouette. Numerals follow the same narrow, high-contrast logic, with old-style influence in their curves and compact widths.
Well-suited to headlines, subheads, and display settings where space is tight but a traditional serif voice is desired. It also fits editorial design—magazine titles, pull quotes, and book jackets—where a tall, refined texture can add authority. In branding, it can convey heritage and seriousness, especially when paired with simpler supporting text.
The overall tone feels formal and literary, with a composed, old-world polish suited to serious subject matter. Its condensed stance and flared detailing evoke vintage print culture—newspaper headings, book typography, and classic signage—without becoming overly ornamental. The mood is confident and slightly dramatic, emphasizing verticality and refinement.
The font appears intended to deliver a space-saving serif with a classic, print-forward feel, using flared terminals and measured contrast to keep narrow letterforms lively and legible. Its design balances traditional cues with a clean, controlled execution to work confidently in prominent, text-forward applications.
The design’s narrow set and strong vertical emphasis make spacing and line breaks feel efficient, while the flared endings help prevent the forms from feeling overly mechanical. Curved letters (like C, G, O, S) keep a smooth, controlled roundness that balances the strictness of the condensed stems.
