A tightly condensed serif with pronounced thick–thin contrast and hairline joins. Stems end in sharp, flared serif-like terminals that feel more like tapered wedges than bracketed feet, giving the outlines a crisp, blade-like finish. Curves are narrow and taut, counters are compact, and the overall rhythm is vertical and columnar; diagonals (as in V, W, X, and Y) stay lean with high-contrast joins. Numerals follow the same compressed proportions, with slender figures and fine, pointed terminals that keep the texture light despite the dark vertical strokes.
Best suited to headlines, magazine-style editorial typography, and brand marks where a tall, compressed silhouette can signal sophistication. It also performs well for posters, packaging, and short pull quotes where the sharp terminals and contrast can be appreciated at larger sizes.
The tone is refined and fashion-forward, mixing classical, inscriptional cues with a slightly theatrical edge. Its narrow, high-contrast build reads as luxurious and deliberate, with a poised, editorial severity rather than casual warmth.
The design appears intended to deliver a sleek, condensed serif voice with flared, sharpened terminals for impact. It prioritizes a strong vertical presence and elegant contrast to create distinctive titles and logotypes with a premium, contemporary-classic feel.
The flared endings and sharp apexes create a sparkling, high-contrast silhouette that becomes more pronounced as size increases. In text settings the condensed letterforms pack tightly, producing a dense vertical color and a distinctly stylized word shape that favors display over extended reading.
