A tightly condensed serif with pronounced vertical emphasis and sharp, high-contrast stroke modulation. Thick stems snap into hairline connections and finely tapered serifs, producing a crisp, chiseled silhouette. Counters are narrow and tall, curves feel controlled and slightly faceted, and terminals often finish in thin, needle-like points. The lowercase keeps a fairly traditional structure with a two-storey “a” and “g,” a compact, straight-sided “m,” and a tall, slender “t,” while figures are similarly condensed with elegant, hairline details.
Best suited to display typography such as magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, posters, and prominent pull quotes where its condensed proportions and contrast can dominate the layout. It can work for short subheads or deck text when given generous size and spacing, but is less comfortable for long-running small text due to its tight counters and fine details.
The overall tone is polished and theatrical, with a runway/editorial sensibility that reads as premium and attention-grabbing. Its narrow, high-drama forms feel refined and assertive, lending a sense of sophistication and deliberate stylization.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, elegant serif voice in a highly compressed, high-impact form—prioritizing sophistication and vertical presence for titling and brand-forward applications.
The font’s extreme verticality and tight apertures create a strong rhythm in all-caps and headlines, while the hairline joins and serifs add a delicate, ornamental edge. In the sample text, the contrast and compression noticeably increase visual sparkle but also make internal spaces and thin strokes feel more delicate at smaller sizes.
