A condensed serif with tall proportions, strong verticals, and relatively tight sidebearings that create a compact, columnar rhythm. Stems broaden into subtly flared, bracketed terminals, while the serifs read as sharp wedges rather than slabs, giving the outlines a carved, chiseled feel. Curves are controlled and slightly squared off, with pronounced joins and crisp apexes on letters like A, V, and W. The lowercase shows compact bowls and a sturdy, upright construction, and the numerals follow the same narrow, high-contrast-within-a-stem logic for a consistent, assertive color in text.
It performs best where vertical economy and strong emphasis matter, such as headlines, subheads, covers, and poster typography. The condensed width makes it useful for space-constrained editorial layouts, while the flared serif character can add a distinctive, heritage-leaning tone to branding, packaging, and title treatments.
The overall tone is sober and authoritative, with a distinctly editorial voice that feels traditional but energized by sharp terminals and condensed tension. It suggests formality and seriousness, suitable for messaging that aims to appear established, institutional, or emphatic.
The font appears designed to deliver a compact, high-impact serif voice that remains readable while projecting authority. Its flared terminals and wedge-like serifs seem intended to add a distinctive, engraved character without departing from conventional text-serifs proportions and structure.
The design’s narrow set and firm stroke endings make it visually dense, producing strong headline impact and a clear vertical cadence in lines of text. The combination of flared terminals and tight counters gives it a slightly theatrical, poster-like edge while remaining within a classic serif framework.
