A condensed, dark-textured serif with sharply faceted contours and a predominantly rectangular construction. Strokes are mostly even, with minimal modulation, and terminals resolve into pointed wedge serifs and clipped corners that create a carved, beveled impression. Counters are tight and often polygonal (notably in O/Q and numerals), while joins stay crisp and angular, producing a rigid rhythm and strong vertical emphasis. Lowercase forms are compact with firm, squared shoulders and short, sturdy extenders, maintaining a consistent, disciplined silhouette in text.
Best suited to display settings where its compressed width and dark presence can create impact—posters, headlines, labels, packaging, and signage. It can also work for short pull quotes or nameplates where a formal, engraved feel is desired; longer passages may benefit from generous tracking and size to keep the sharp detailing from visually crowding.
The overall tone is stern and assertive, with a vintage, industrial flavor reminiscent of engraved lettering and old poster typography. Its sharp wedges and compressed stance read as authoritative and slightly dramatic, lending a no-nonsense, institutional character.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in tight horizontal space while projecting a crafted, engraved aesthetic. Its chiseled corners and wedge serifs aim to evoke tradition and authority, translating ornamental detailing into a consistent, repeatable system for strong display typography.
In continuous text the dense color and narrow proportions create a strong vertical cadence; the angular detailing becomes a prominent stylistic feature rather than a subtle accent. Numerals and uppercase share the same octagonal/channeled logic, supporting a cohesive display voice across alphanumerics.
