A condensed serif with tall proportions, a high x-height, and tight horizontal fit. Strokes show moderate contrast with strongly vertical stress, and the outlines feel crisp and slightly sharpened at joins, lending an ink-trap-like bite in places. Serifs are bracketed and narrow, with tapered terminals that keep the texture light while preserving a firm baseline and cap line. Round letters stay relatively tight and upright, and the overall rhythm is vertical and even, producing a dense, columnar color in text.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, and editorial settings where space is limited and a strong vertical rhythm is desirable. It can work well for magazine titling, posters, and branding systems that want a classic serif voice without wide letterforms.
The tone is editorial and classic, with a slightly theatrical, headline-forward presence. Its narrow build and sharp detailing evoke vintage publishing and poster typography, reading as confident, formal, and a bit dramatic rather than casual.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional serif impression in a space-saving, condensed footprint, balancing readability with a distinctive, upright editorial character. Its detailing suggests an aim for strong presence in display typography while still holding together in short text runs.
Capitals are notably tall and slender, with compact bowls and minimal lateral spread, which amplifies a streamlined, display-like feel. Numerals follow the same condensed logic and read clearly at larger sizes, matching the font’s vertical emphasis.
