A condensed serif with strongly vertical proportions and a compact set width. Strokes stay relatively even, while stems visibly broaden into flared terminals and bracketed serif joins, giving the letterforms a sculpted, chiseled edge rather than crisp slab endings. Counters are tight and tall, the x-height reads large for the overall scale, and many glyphs show wedge-like feet and tapered top treatments that keep the texture lively at display sizes. Numerals follow the same condensed, flared construction with firm, upright stance.
Best suited for headlines, subheads, and short blocks of text where a condensed footprint and strong presence are useful. It can work well in magazine and newspaper-style layouts, theatrical or event posters, and brand applications that want a classic serif voice with extra punch in narrow spaces.
The overall tone is assertive and editorial, combining traditional serif cues with a punchy, poster-ready narrowness. Its flared endings and tight spacing create a slightly vintage, headline-driven flavor that feels serious, dramatic, and attention-seeking without becoming ornamental.
Likely designed to deliver a space-efficient serif with a distinctive flared finish, balancing traditional readability cues with a bold, vertical silhouette for impactful display typography.
The rhythm is dense and vertical, producing a strong, dark text color in lines of copy. Pointed joins and wedge terminals add crisp accents in diagonals (notably in V/W/X/Y) and at baseline serifs, which can heighten contrast in texture even with generally even stroke weight.
