A condensed serif with tall proportions, tight sidebearings, and lively, slightly irregular curves. Strokes show modest modulation with tapered joins and small, sharply cut bracketed serifs that often flare into wedge-like terminals. Counters are compact and vertical, and many letters carry a subtly calligraphic twist—especially in curves and diagonals—giving the texture a crisp, rhythmic sparkle in text. Numerals are narrow and upright, matching the compressed set width and pointed finishing details.
Works well for editorial headlines, book jackets, and cultural or literary branding where a narrow serif can deliver authority without occupying much horizontal space. It can also serve in pull quotes and subheads, and in short text passages when given comfortable size and leading.
The overall tone feels bookish and traditional, with a hint of eccentricity from the spiky terminals and animated curves. It suggests an older printing voice—serious enough for formal settings, but distinctive and slightly theatrical in display.
The design appears aimed at a compact, space-efficient serif with a classic foundation, enhanced by sharpened terminals and subtle calligraphic modulation to stand out in display and editorial contexts.
The compressed capitals create strong vertical emphasis, while the lowercase remains clear and steady at text sizes. Pointed terminals and tapered strokes add character in headlines, though the tight proportions can make dense passages feel visually busy if set too small or too tightly spaced.
