A condensed display serif with strong vertical emphasis, pronounced thick–thin contrast, and flared, wedge-like terminals that broaden at stroke ends. The forms are tightly set with compact counters and a steady, upright rhythm, while the joins and serifs feel sharply cut rather than rounded or slabby. Lowercase shapes read cleanly at display sizes, with a relatively tall x-height and crisp entry/exit strokes that give the texture a dense, energetic color.
Best suited for headlines, magazine mastheads, posters, and brand marks where strong contrast and condensed proportions can create hierarchy in limited space. It also works well for short editorial subheads, pull quotes, and packaging typography that benefits from a sharp, upscale serif voice.
The overall tone is assertive and editorial, pairing classical serif cues with a more dramatic, high-impact silhouette. It feels formal and premium, with a slightly theatrical edge that suits attention-grabbing headlines and branded statements.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a narrow measure while retaining a traditional serif sensibility. Flared stroke endings and crisp contrast suggest a goal of combining classic authority with modern display punch.
Capitals show a consistent vertical stress and tapered diagonals, giving words a chiseled, poster-like presence. Numerals match the same contrast and terminal treatment, integrating well for dates and pricing in headline contexts.
