A compact, vertical blackletter with broken strokes and sharply angled joins. Stems are straight and disciplined, with consistent stroke weight and minimal modulation, while terminals resolve into crisp wedges and beveled points. Counters are tight and rectangular, and many letters show characteristic fractured construction that creates a rhythmic pattern of dark verticals. Uppercase forms are tall and emphatic, and the numerals match the same chiseled, faceted logic for a cohesive set.
Best suited to display typography such as headlines, posters, title treatments, and branding that aims for a historic or gothic voice. It also works well for album/cover art and themed editorial uses where texture and atmosphere are more important than long-form readability.
The overall tone is medieval and ceremonial, with a stern, authoritative presence that reads as traditional and institutional. Its dense texture and pointed detailing add drama and a sense of gravitas, lending text an old-world, manuscript-like atmosphere.
The font appears designed to evoke classic blackletter writing while keeping strokes relatively even and geometry disciplined, producing a solid, high-impact texture for modern display use. Its consistent angular detailing and matching figures suggest an intention to provide a cohesive, traditional voice across titles and short blocks of text.
The design builds a strong “picket fence” cadence in continuous text, with pronounced vertical repetition and small internal apertures. At smaller sizes the tight counters and dark texture can reduce clarity, while at display sizes the faceted terminals and fractured construction become a defining visual feature.
