A compact, heavy sans with a distinctly angular, chiseled construction. Stems and bowls are built from straight segments with clipped corners and wedge-like terminals, creating a faceted silhouette rather than smooth curves. The forms show a slightly irregular, hand-cut rhythm: counters are tight, curves resolve into short diagonals, and joins often sharpen into notches. Lowercase includes single-storey shapes and a tall, simple rhythm, while numerals share the same blocky geometry and strong vertical emphasis.
Best suited to short display settings where its carved, angular silhouettes can be appreciated: headlines, posters, event graphics, logotypes, packaging, and signage. It can also work for themed titles or labels that benefit from a historic or gothic flavor, while extended body copy may require generous size and spacing to avoid a heavy, closed-in texture.
The overall tone evokes Gothic and medieval sign lettering, filtered through a bold, poster-oriented sensibility. Its sharp corners and carved feel read as assertive and slightly dramatic, suggesting tradition, craft, and spectacle more than neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, compact display voice with a carved, blackletter-adjacent character while staying within a sans-like, constructed framework. Its faceted terminals and slightly irregular rhythm suggest an aim for a handmade, engraved impression that remains highly impactful in large-scale typography.
At text sizes the dense texture and tight internal spaces can make longer passages feel dark, while at display sizes the distinctive angular terminals and notched details become a defining feature. The design maintains a consistent faceted logic across caps, lowercase, and figures, giving headlines a cohesive, emblem-like presence.
