A tightly condensed display face built from tall, angular letterforms with sharply cut terminals and faceted corners. Strokes are heavy and mostly rectilinear, punctuated by narrow internal inlines and occasional cut-in notches that create a hollowed, engraved feel. The rhythm is vertical and architectural, with narrow apertures and compact counters that keep the silhouettes dense while maintaining crisp edges. Curves are minimized in favor of chamfered joins and hard turns, producing an overall monolithic, carved look across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
Best used for short, high-impact settings such as posters, title treatments, branding marks, and packaging where its condensed width and carved detailing can be appreciated. It works well for entertainment and genre-forward applications—horror, fantasy, metal, or noir-inspired graphics—especially in large sizes with generous tracking. For longer text or small UI sizes, its dense counters and internal carving are likely to reduce legibility.
The font projects a dark, ceremonial tone—part gothic signage, part industrial engraving. Its narrow, spiked shapes and internal inlines evoke mystery and tension, reading as dramatic and slightly intimidating rather than friendly or casual. The result feels suited to fantastical or ominous themes while still retaining a structured, engineered precision.
The design appears intended as a dramatic, condensed display font that combines architectural blackletter cues with an engraved inline treatment. Its emphasis on verticality, sharp facets, and carved interior lines suggests a goal of producing a strong, iconic silhouette that feels both historical and stylized for modern display use.
Uppercase forms read as especially rigid and towering, while the lowercase keeps the same condensed, angular logic with simplified bowls and narrow counters. Numerals follow the same chiseled construction, maintaining consistent vertical emphasis and internal detailing for a cohesive set. At smaller sizes, the inline carving and tight interiors may visually fill in, so spacing and size choice will strongly affect clarity.
