A condensed serif with sturdy vertical emphasis and sculpted, flaring terminals that widen subtly into the serifs. Stroke contrast is moderate, with firm main stems and tighter joins that keep counters compact while maintaining clarity. Serifs appear bracketed and slightly wedge-like, giving the outlines a carved, tapered feel rather than flat slab endings. The rhythm is tight and upright, with strong headline presence and consistent, disciplined spacing across caps, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited for headlines, pull quotes, and display typography where a compact width and strong typographic color are desirable. It also fits editorial mastheads, packaging, and brand marks that need a traditional serif voice with extra punch and economy of space.
The overall tone is confident and authoritative, blending classic editorial polish with a slightly theatrical sharpness. Its condensed proportions and dark color create a sense of urgency and impact, while the serif detailing keeps it rooted in traditional print sensibilities.
Likely designed to deliver a space-efficient, high-impact serif for display use, pairing condensed proportions with flared, bracketed detailing to keep the forms expressive and legible under heavier weight.
In text, the font produces a dense, high-contrast texture without becoming overly delicate, making it feel robust at display sizes. The numerals match the letterforms with similarly flared finishing and a strong vertical stance, supporting cohesive typographic systems across headlines and supporting data.
