A tall, condensed serif design built from an outline silhouette with a consistent inner inline, creating a hollow, engraved look. Strokes stay relatively even in apparent weight, with crisp, squared terminals and small bracketed serifs that read cleanly in the outline construction. Capitals are high and slender with generous counters; curves are smooth and slightly stylized, while joins and corners remain precise. The lowercase is compact with simple, upright forms, and the figures are similarly narrow, with distinctive, open shapes that keep the interior line visible.
Best suited to display typography such as posters, headlines, and titling where the outlined inline can be appreciated. It also works well for packaging, labels, and book covers seeking a vintage or crafted impression, and for invitations or editorial pull-quotes where a decorative serif is desired.
The overall tone feels vintage and print-referential, like letterpress or engraved titling, while the inline outline treatment adds a light, ornamental flair. It balances formality from its serif structure with a subtly quirky, storybook character in details like the rounder bowls and lively numerals.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic serif presence with an added inline outline that evokes engraving and ornamental signage. Its narrow proportions and crisp detailing suggest a focus on elegant, space-saving display settings where personality comes from the hollowed construction rather than heavy stroke contrast.
The double-contour structure is most prominent at larger sizes, where the inner line reads as a deliberate decorative feature rather than texture. In dense settings the internal detailing can visually fill in, so spacing and size are key to preserving the airy, outlined effect.
