A condensed, vertical blackletter with tall proportions and tight sidebearings. Strokes are built from straight, faceted segments with pointed terminals, producing a crisp, chiseled silhouette. Counters are narrow and largely enclosed, with frequent broken joins and small wedge-like notches that emphasize the rhythmic upstroke/downstroke pattern. Capitals are narrow and towering, while lowercase maintains a compact, upright texture with consistent vertical emphasis; figures follow the same angular construction for a unified color.
Best suited to short, prominent settings such as headlines, poster typography, wordmarks, and display phrases where its condensed blackletter texture can be appreciated. It also fits branding for craft, heritage, or dramatic themes (e.g., album covers, event titles, and packaging) where a historic, high-impact voice is desired.
The overall tone is gothic and ceremonial, projecting severity and tradition. Its tight, spired rhythm and sharp terminals feel dramatic and authoritative, evoking old-world signage, formal proclamations, and dark, theatrical atmospheres.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, high-impact blackletter voice with a strongly vertical, architectural rhythm. By prioritizing narrow proportions, sharp terminals, and consistent angular construction across letters and numerals, it aims to create a bold, traditional texture that holds together in display text.
The typeface creates a strong, even vertical cadence that reads as a dense, patterned texture in lines of text. Distinctive pointed feet and tops, along with minimal curvature, make the design feel architectural and blade-like, with punctuation and numerals echoing the same faceted logic.
