This typeface uses heavy, low-contrast strokes with sharply chamfered corners and pronounced flared serifs. Letterforms are built from broad, slightly compressed bowls and rectangular counters, giving many glyphs a squared, carved-in look. Terminals often taper into wedge-like points, and interior notches and spur details create a faceted rhythm across the alphabet. The overall construction feels display-oriented, with distinctive geometry that remains consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited for headlines and short-form display settings where its distinctive wedge terminals and faceted serifs can be appreciated—such as posters, book or album covers, game and film titling, and brand marks that want an antique or gothic edge. It can work for short passages at large sizes, but the busy interior detailing may reduce clarity in long text.
The tone is darkly ornamental and archaic, evoking gothic signage and fantasy-era titling. Its sharp wedges and carved details add a ritualistic, mysterious feel, leaning more theatrical than formal.
The design appears intended to reinterpret traditional serif structures through an angular, incised display treatment—prioritizing atmosphere and recognizability over neutrality, and delivering a cohesive, carved aesthetic across the full alphanumeric set.
In text, the dense shapes and frequent angular notches create a strong texture and a somewhat staccato flow, especially at smaller sizes. The numerals match the same chiselled logic, with squared interiors and prominent corner treatments that keep the set cohesive.
