A condensed serif with tall proportions, tight counters, and a strongly vertical rhythm. Strokes show subtle modulation and finish in sharp, flared terminals that read like small wedges rather than flat slabs, giving joins and ends a crisp, chiseled feel. Capitals are narrow and high-waisted with compact bowls (notably in B, P, R), while curves in C, G, O and S are taut and drawn with controlled tension. Lowercase maintains a tall x-height with short extenders; round letters stay narrow, and the punctuation and numerals follow the same pinched, vertical stance for a consistent, poster-like texture in text.
Best suited to display applications where a dense, attention-grabbing texture is desired: headlines, magazine titles, posters, packaging, and book-cover typography. It can also work for short subheads or pull quotes where you want a classic-seriffed voice with extra urgency and compression.
The overall tone is assertive and slightly theatrical, combining a classic serif sensibility with a compressed, high-impact voice. Its sharp flares and narrow set evoke vintage headlines and show-card typography, reading as authoritative, dramatic, and a touch gothic without becoming ornate.
This design appears intended to deliver a high-impact condensed serif for editorial and advertising settings, pairing traditional proportions with sharpened, flared endings to increase presence and silhouette clarity. The consistent vertical emphasis and tight internal spaces suggest a focus on dramatic headline setting and efficient space use.
In running lines the tight spacing and condensed forms create a strong color and pronounced vertical striping, especially in clusters of straight stems. The flared terminals add sparkle at display sizes, while the narrow apertures and compact counters suggest careful size selection for comfortable reading.
