A tightly set serif with a pronounced rightward slant and strong thick–thin modulation. Stems are compact and upright in structure but rendered with tapered terminals and bracketed serifs that feel carved rather than blunt. Curves show a crisp, controlled tension (notably in C, G, and S), with sharp joins and narrow interior counters that reinforce the condensed rhythm. Capitals read stately and vertical in proportion while the lowercase carries a more calligraphic flow, with single-storey a and g and long, clean ascenders and descenders.
Works best for headlines, decks, and short-to-medium text where a dense, elegant texture is beneficial—such as magazine layouts, book covers, cultural posters, and premium packaging. In longer passages it can deliver an editorial voice, especially at comfortable sizes with generous leading to balance the compact forms.
The overall tone is traditional and editorial, with a sense of drama coming from the tight proportions and high-contrast strokes. It feels assertive and polished—suited to serious, curated contexts where a slightly theatrical elegance is desired.
The design appears intended to merge conventional text-serif structure with a condensed, high-impact italic voice—delivering classic readability cues while heightening contrast and slant for emphasis and sophistication in layout-driven typography.
Letterfit appears compact, creating a dense texture in paragraphs and a punchy silhouette in display lines. Numerals are narrow and upright in feel, matching the text’s disciplined rhythm and sharp, formal presence.
