A condensed serif with striking stroke contrast and a strong vertical axis. The letterforms are tall and tightly proportioned, with compact sidebearings that create a dense, headline-ready rhythm. Serifs are fine and mostly bracketed, and many terminals resolve into sharp, clean cuts. Curved letters show pronounced thick–thin transitions, while straight stems stay dominant and dark, giving the overall texture a bold, poster-like presence.
Best suited to headlines, deck copy, and other short-to-medium setting where impact and economy of space matter. It works well for magazine and newspaper-style layouts, book covers, event posters, and branding or packaging that benefits from a classic, high-contrast serif voice.
The tone is formal and assertive, with a distinctly editorial, old-style display feel. Its compressed width and dramatic contrast add urgency and theatricality, evoking classic newspaper headlines, vintage packaging, and period advertising.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional serif authority in a space-saving, display-oriented silhouette. By combining condensed proportions with pronounced contrast and refined serifs, it aims for strong hierarchy and a memorable, vintage-leaning editorial character.
Uppercase shapes feel especially stately and vertical, while the lowercase maintains a sturdy, compact color that stays legible at larger text sizes. Numerals match the condensed, high-contrast build, reading as firm and attention-grabbing in setting.
