A striking condensed serif with extreme stroke contrast and a strong vertical axis. Thick vertical stems are paired with very fine hairlines, producing crisp joins, sharp terminals, and delicate serif detailing. The letterforms are tall and compressed, with tight interior counters and a disciplined, columnar rhythm that keeps lines of text compact and graphic. Curves (notably in C, G, O, and S) show thin connecting strokes and taut bowls, while punctuation and numerals maintain the same high-contrast, upright structure.
Best suited to display typography such as headlines, magazine mastheads, cover lines, posters, and brand wordmarks where its contrast and condensed proportions can be used for impact. It also works well for short editorial callouts and titles in spacious layouts where the delicate hairlines have room to breathe.
The overall tone is elegant and commanding, with a distinctly editorial, runway-ready polish. Its narrow, high-contrast build gives it a dramatic, high-end feel that reads as refined and intentional rather than casual or friendly.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, fashion-forward Didone-like presence in a compressed width, maximizing vertical drama and punch while maintaining a refined, high-contrast serif vocabulary.
In the text sample, the strong black verticals create a pronounced striped texture, while hairlines can visually recede at smaller sizes or on lower-resolution output. The condensed proportions allow dense headlines and stacked layouts, but the tight counters and fine details benefit from generous sizing and careful spacing in display settings.
