A condensed serif with striking thick–thin contrast and sharply tapered, flared stroke endings. The forms are tall and narrow with a tight, vertical rhythm, and the terminals often resolve into fine points rather than flat serifs, giving many strokes a chiseled, knife-edge finish. Curves are smooth and controlled, while joins and shoulders stay crisp; counters tend to be compact, reinforcing the compressed texture in words. Figures follow the same contrasty logic, with slender diagonals and delicate hairline details.
This design performs best in display settings such as headlines, magazine titles, pull quotes, posters, and branding where its condensed width and high contrast can create drama and hierarchy. It can also work for short subheads or packaging typography when set with generous size and careful spacing.
The overall tone feels refined and theatrical—suited to high-impact, style-conscious typography with a slightly vintage, engraved sensibility. Its narrow proportions and sharp terminals create a poised, assertive voice that reads as luxe and editorial rather than casual or utilitarian.
The font appears designed to deliver a condensed, high-contrast serif voice with modern sharpness and flared, tapered terminals—prioritizing visual impact, elegance, and a strong vertical rhythm for editorial and branding applications.
In running text the tight spacing and strong contrast produce a dark, high-fashion color, while the extremely fine hairlines and pointed terminals add sparkle at larger sizes. The flared endings help maintain a sense of serif structure even where the terminals become very thin.
