A tightly condensed, faceted display face built from straight strokes and sharp, planar joins, with minimal rounding and a consistent, low-contrast stroke weight. Counters are narrow and often polygonal, while terminals frequently end in pointed wedges or clipped angles that create a chiseled silhouette. The vertical rhythm is dominant, with tall ascenders and deep, tapered descenders that emphasize a compact, column-like texture in text. Numerals follow the same angular construction, reading clearly while maintaining the font’s rigid, architectural geometry.
Best suited for short-to-medium display settings where its condensed, angular forms can create impact—headlines, posters, album or event titles, and strong brand marks. It can also work on packaging or editorial opener typography when a stern, historic-meets-industrial voice is desired, while small sizes or dense paragraphs may feel heavy due to the tight counters and dark texture.
The overall tone is stern and theatrical, evoking Gothic and blackletter-adjacent traditions through its narrow proportions and blade-like terminals while remaining clean and simplified in structure. It feels authoritative and ceremonial, with an industrial edge that reads as tough, mechanical, and deliberate rather than ornamental.
The design appears intended to deliver a modernized Gothic impression using a simplified, faceted construction: high-impact forms, consistent weight, and sharply cut details that preserve a historic severity while reading with contemporary graphic clarity.
In longer lines the spacing and condensed forms create a strong, dark typographic color and a pronounced vertical cadence. The faceted approach keeps curves restrained, so round letters take on a carved, polygonal look that enhances the hard-edged personality.
