This typeface is a compressed, high-contrast serif with strong vertical emphasis and crisp, hairline terminals. Stems are thick and straight, while connecting strokes and serifs taper sharply, producing a clean Didone-like rhythm. Counters are relatively tight and the overall silhouette is tall and narrow, with long ascenders and descenders that add elegance. In text, the letterspacing and dense proportions create a steady, column-like texture with pronounced thick–thin modulation.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, and display sizes where its contrast and narrow proportions can create impact without taking much horizontal space. It works well for editorial design, book and magazine covers, fashion or luxury branding, and posters that benefit from a refined, high-drama typographic voice. For longer passages, it will feel most comfortable at generous sizes and with mindful line spacing.
The overall tone is formal and editorial, with a theatrical sharpness that reads as sophisticated and fashion-forward. Its narrow, towering forms feel assertive and polished, lending a premium, old-world seriousness with a modern, high-contrast snap.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, high-contrast serif look in a space-saving, condensed format, balancing elegance with strong vertical presence. It aims to provide a distinctive editorial voice that remains clean and structured across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
The numerals follow the same condensed, contrast-heavy construction, and the punctuation is similarly slender and sharp, reinforcing the refined, print-oriented character. The lowercase shows a classic serif structure with compact bowls and clear vertical stress, keeping the texture consistent across mixed-case settings.
