A compact serif with pronounced vertical stress and brisk, high-contrast modulation. Stems are sturdy and tend to broaden into subtly flared, bracketed endings, producing pointed, wedge-like serifs rather than slab forms. Counters are relatively tight and the curves are taut, with crisp joins and sharp apexes that keep the rhythm clean and orderly. Overall spacing reads economical and text forms stack into a dense, even color in paragraph settings.
Works well for editorial typography—magazine headlines, section heads, and pull quotes—where its compact width and sharp serifs add presence. It can also serve in book or long-form settings at comfortable sizes, delivering a classic texture, and it suits packaging and poster typography that wants a traditional, authoritative feel.
The design conveys a traditional, authoritative tone with a slightly theatrical edge from its sharp serifs and narrowed proportions. It feels bookish and formal, suited to contexts that benefit from a confident, old-world voice without becoming ornate.
Likely intended as a compact, high-contrast serif that balances readability with a distinctive flared-serif signature. The design prioritizes a disciplined, classical rhythm while adding character through sharpened terminals and confident vertical structure.
Capitals appear stately and upright with consistent stroke behavior, while the lowercase maintains a straightforward, legible structure that holds up in continuous reading. Numerals follow the same crisp, high-contrast logic, aligning well with the text style rather than calling attention to themselves.
