A compact, tall-serif display face with heavy, almost monoline strokes and pronounced wedge-like terminals. The serifs are sharply pointed and often notched, giving many letters a chiseled, cut-paper feel. Counters are generally tight and verticals dominate, while curves are squared-off and sturdy rather than delicate. The overall rhythm is condensed and punchy, with strong vertical stress and crisp joins that keep the texture dark and uniform in lines of text.
Best suited for headlines, posters, signage, and branding where a condensed, high-impact wordshape is needed. It can work well on packaging or labels that benefit from a retro display flavor, and it is especially effective at medium-to-large sizes where the pointed terminals and notches read clearly.
The tone feels vintage and showy, evoking poster lettering and old display typography with a slightly theatrical edge. Its sharp serifs and cut-in details add a confident, assertive personality that reads as energetic and attention-seeking rather than refined or literary.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a compact width while adding personality through sharp wedge serifs and cut-in details. It prioritizes bold, memorable silhouettes and a consistent dark texture for display typography and branding applications.
In continuous text the dense color and tight interiors create a strong headline texture, while distinctive shapes (notably in letters like J, Q, and the diagonals) emphasize a decorative, branded look. Numerals match the same squared, wedge-terminal logic, keeping the set visually consistent for titles and short numeric callouts.
