A condensed, display-oriented sans with sharp, tapered strokes and subtly flared terminals that create a chiseled, cut-from-paper look. Curves are narrow and controlled, with pointed joins and wedge-like endings that introduce a faint calligraphic stress despite the overall sans construction. The rhythm is tall and vertical, with tight counters and compact apertures that keep words dense and graphic. Uppercase and lowercase share the same crisp, angular vocabulary, and the numerals follow the same narrow, stylized proportions.
Best suited to headlines, titling, posters, and branding where a tall, stylized texture is an advantage. It works well for entertainment, horror/fantasy themes, nightlife, or vintage-inspired packaging, and can also serve as a distinctive logotype face when set with generous tracking.
The font conveys a darkly elegant, vintage tone—part gothic, part streamlined poster lettering. Its pointed details and narrow stance add tension and drama, making it feel ceremonial and slightly mysterious rather than neutral or everyday.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, characterful display voice using a condensed silhouette and sharpened terminals, borrowing cues from gothic and early-modern poster lettering while remaining fundamentally sans in construction. The goal is impact and atmosphere over neutrality, with consistent angular detailing that holds together across caps, lowercase, and figures.
The distinctive wedge terminals and sharpened inflections become most prominent at larger sizes, where the internal shapes and pointed endings read as intentional ornament. In continuous text, the condensed width and tight counters can make long passages feel busy, but it produces a strong, cohesive texture for short lines and emphatic phrases.
