A condensed serif with tall proportions, a steady monoline stroke, and compact, slab-like serifs that read as softly rounded and slightly bracketed. Curves are narrow and upright with restrained apertures, producing a tight, vertical rhythm. Counters are small but consistent, and joins stay crisp without noticeable contrast shifts. Figures and capitals maintain the same compressed, columnar feel, giving text a dense, structured texture.
Well suited to headlines and subheads where a lot of characters must fit in limited width, such as book jackets, posters, and packaging. It can also work for short-to-medium editorial passages, pull quotes, and labeling systems where a compact, structured texture is desirable.
The overall tone feels typewriter-adjacent and workmanlike, with an editorial seriousness and a faint vintage grit. Its narrow stance and dark, tidy terminals suggest utilitarian print—records, labels, and documentation—while still reading cleanly in modern layouts.
The design appears intended to deliver a space-saving serif with a sturdy, print-driven voice—combining condensed proportions and consistent strokes with softened slab terminals to keep the texture firm but not harsh.
The condensed fit and uniform strokes create strong color on the page, making word shapes appear compact and authoritative. Rounded slab terminals soften the mechanical impression, helping the face stay approachable despite its tightly packed forms.
