A condensed decorative serif with tall, rectilinear construction and sharply cut terminals. Strokes are mostly straight and vertical with modest contrast, while many joins and endings are shaped by pointed spurs and small wedge-like serifs that read as flared, chiseled cuts rather than soft brackets. Counters tend to be narrow and enclosed, and several letters use angular notches and pinched shoulders that create a faceted, carved rhythm. The lowercase maintains a compact footprint with tight apertures and distinctive, stylized forms, and the figures follow the same vertical, blocky logic with crisp corners and minimal curvature.
Best suited to headlines, posters, logotypes, and packaging where its condensed silhouette and chiseled detailing can carry a strong visual identity. It also works well for signage or editorial display moments that want a vintage or gothic-tinged voice.
The overall tone is gothic-leaning and theatrical, with a stern, old-world presence that evokes signage, display typography, and dramatic editorial settings. Its sharp spurs and compressed rhythm give it an assertive, slightly mysterious character that feels historic rather than contemporary.
The letterforms appear designed to blend traditional serif structure with ornamental, blackletter-adjacent cues—compressing proportions and sharpening terminals to produce a carved, emphatic texture for attention-grabbing display use.
In text, the dense vertical texture and frequent pointed terminals create strong patterning and a dark color on the line. The design’s stylization is consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals, but the tight counters and angular detailing suggest it will be most comfortable at display sizes rather than small body copy.
