A sharply angular, faceted letterform with a pronounced forward slant and strong thick–thin modulation. Strokes read like folded ribbons or chiseled planes, with frequent breaks and pointed joins that create a fractured, crystalline rhythm. Counters are narrow and triangular, and many terminals end in knife-like wedges or spur-like hooks. Capitals feel tall and emphatic with compact internal space, while lowercase maintains a tight, vertical texture punctuated by abrupt diagonals and occasional hairline connectors.
Best suited to display settings where texture and attitude are assets: posters, event titles, album/track artwork, brand marks, and packaging that wants a gothic or artisanal edge. It will read most confidently at larger sizes, where the internal breaks, sharp joins, and high-contrast strokes can be appreciated without clogging.
The overall tone is gothic and theatrical, combining medieval craft cues with a hard, aggressive edge. Its sharp interruptions and blade-like terminals convey intensity and ceremony, suggesting dark romantic, occult, or metal-adjacent atmospheres rather than everyday friendliness.
The design appears intended to reinterpret blackletter calligraphy through a geometric, cut-metal or folded-paper aesthetic, emphasizing speed, sharpness, and dramatic texture. It prioritizes striking silhouettes and a dark, ornamental voice for impactful titling.
Letterspacing and word texture appear dense, with distinctive zigzag silhouettes on forms like M/W and strong vertical emphasis across the alphabet. Numerals echo the same broken, faceted construction, helping headings and short numeric callouts maintain a consistent, carved look.
