A condensed serif with tall proportions, firm vertical stress, and clearly flared stroke endings that broaden into bracketed serifs. Strokes show noticeable modulation: verticals read weighty while curves and joins taper, giving counters a pinched, high-contrast feel without becoming hairline-thin. The uppercase is stately and narrow with tight internal space, while the lowercase follows a compact rhythm with a normal-height x‑height and crisp, controlled terminals. Numerals and punctuation match the same tapered-to-flared logic, producing a consistent, slightly theatrical texture in text.
Works best for headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and mastheads where a compact width and strong typographic voice are beneficial. It can also serve on book and album covers, packaging, and event posters when a classic, authoritative serif texture is desired, particularly at medium-to-large sizes.
The overall tone is commanding and traditional, with a refined, high-impact presence. Its condensed posture and flared finishes lend a vintage editorial drama—serious, dignified, and a touch showy—suited to statements that need to feel deliberate and established.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a narrow footprint while retaining a traditional serif identity. The flared terminals and controlled contrast suggest a display-driven serif aimed at confident editorial branding and punchy, space-efficient titling.
In the sample lines, the dense color and narrow set create a strong vertical cadence, especially in mixed-case runs. The flaring at stroke ends helps maintain clarity at display sizes, but the tight proportions and compact counters make it feel most comfortable when given breathing room in leading and tracking for longer passages.
