A condensed serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and flared, wedge-like terminals that read as sharp yet slightly bracketed. Vertical stems are dominant and dark, while hairlines are very fine, creating a crisp, high-contrast rhythm in text. Curves are taut and controlled, with compact counters and a generally tall, columnar silhouette; diagonals and joins stay clean and pointed rather than rounded. Numerals and capitals feel especially display-oriented, with strong vertical emphasis and consistent, chiseled finishing on serifs and terminals.
This font is well suited to headlines, deck text, magazine layouts, and branding where a condensed footprint and strong typographic flavor are desirable. It can also work for short pull quotes or packaging copy when set with comfortable leading and adequate size to preserve the fine hairlines.
The overall tone is assertive and refined, combining classical bookish cues with a fashion/editorial edge. Its tight, dramatic contrast and sharp finishing give it a confident, slightly theatrical presence suited to bold statements rather than quiet neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, high-impact serif voice with flared terminals and pronounced contrast—melding traditional serif structure with a sharper, more contemporary display sensibility for editorial and brand-forward typography.
In the sample text, the dense color and narrow set create a striking texture at larger sizes, while the extreme hairlines suggest it will reward generous reproduction and careful background contrast. The ampersand and the more sculpted lowercase forms add a subtle calligraphic flavor without becoming ornate.
