A tall, narrow roman with crisp, high-contrast strokes and clean, gently tapered terminals. Curves are smooth and controlled, with rounded bowls and relatively open counters that keep forms clear despite the condensed width. Serifs are minimal and understated, reading more like slight flares than pronounced slabs, while verticals stay straight and dominant to reinforce a vertical rhythm. Overall spacing appears even and disciplined, producing a neat, column-like texture in text.
Well-suited to editorial design where space efficiency matters, such as magazines, book typography, and narrow columns. It can also serve in elegant headlines, pull quotes, and poster titles where its condensed proportions and contrast create a strong vertical presence.
The tone is elegant and composed, with a slightly old-style, bookish flavor that feels at home in classic editorial settings. Its narrow stance and sharp contrast lend a poised, somewhat dramatic presence without becoming ornate.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, readable text texture in a condensed footprint, balancing high-contrast elegance with restrained detailing for practical use across longer passages and tight layouts.
Uppercase forms emphasize height and symmetry, and the numerals follow the same refined contrast and compact proportions, making them blend smoothly into text. The punctuation and curved joins shown in the sample maintain a consistent, polished stroke logic.
