A compact, right-leaning serif with sharp wedge-like terminals and pronounced stroke modulation. The design pairs sturdy vertical stems with tapered joins and pointed, bracketed serifs that read as chiseled rather than rounded. Curves are tight and slightly squashed, creating a dense rhythm, while diagonals and entry/exit strokes show a subtly calligraphic, pen-driven flavor. Numerals and capitals follow the same crisp, tapered logic, giving the set a cohesive, punchy texture in lines of text.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, and other display-driven settings where contrast and sharp detailing can be appreciated. It also works well for magazine layouts and book-cover typography that benefits from a compact footprint and strong typographic presence.
The overall tone feels dramatic and authoritative, with a classic editorial flavor. Its sharp terminals and energetic slant lend urgency and motion, while the traditional serif structure keeps it grounded and formal.
The font appears designed to deliver a traditional serif voice with heightened intensity—combining classic proportions and serifs with a more aggressive, tapered, italicized drawing for impact in editorial and promotional typography.
Spacing appears relatively tight and the letterforms feel intentionally compact, producing a dark, continuous typographic color at text sizes. The lowercase shows lively, angled details—especially in letters with descenders and diagonals—which adds character without drifting into novelty.
