A highly condensed serif display with tall proportions, tight horizontal footprint, and strong vertical emphasis. Strokes are mostly straight and architectural, with noticeable contrast between sturdy stems and finer connecting strokes, and small bracketed serifs that read sharp at the ends. Counters are narrow and vertically oriented, and several joins show pointed notches that create an ink-trap-like texture. The rhythm is compact and punchy, with slightly irregular widths across letters and a mix of square and softly rounded terminals that adds a distinctive, constructed feel.
Best suited for large sizes where its condensed proportions and sharp serif details can deliver impact—such as headlines, editorial titles, posters, and branding wordmarks. It can also work for short bursts of text on packaging or cover design, especially where a vintage or theatrical tone is desired.
The overall tone is dramatic and attention-grabbing, with a retro editorial flavor that suggests posters, headlines, and show-card typography. Its tall, compressed silhouette feels assertive and slightly eccentric, balancing classic serif cues with a stylized, decorative tension.
The design appears intended to maximize presence in minimal horizontal space while maintaining a classic serif voice. Its decorative cuts, narrow counters, and crisp bracketing suggest a deliberate display focus aimed at creating a memorable, stylized texture in prominent typography.
The uppercase is particularly imposing due to its height and compact width, while the lowercase keeps the same narrow stance and crisp serif detailing. Numerals follow the same condensed structure and stand out clearly, reinforcing a strong headline-oriented personality.
