A compact, vertical blackletter with dense color and tightly packed proportions. Strokes are built from crisp, faceted segments with sharp terminals and prominent diamond-like joins, creating a carved, geometric rhythm rather than smooth curves. Counters are small and angular, and many forms rely on straight stems with stepped diagonals and clipped corners; rounded letters (like O and C) read as polygonal. Uppercase construction is rigid and columnar, while lowercase retains the blackletter texture with pointed shoulders, narrow apertures, and distinctive, angular bowls.
Best suited to display settings where its dark texture and angular detail can be appreciated—posters, cover art, labels, mastheads, and brand marks that want a gothic or historic voice. It works particularly well for short phrases, titling, and emblematic wordmarks where legibility can be supported by size and spacing.
The font projects a traditional, ceremonial tone with a stern, old-world presence. Its hard-edged construction and dark texture feel institutional and heraldic, evoking medieval manuscript lettering and monumental inscription aesthetics. The overall impression is intense and formal rather than casual or friendly.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, compact blackletter voice with a carved, geometric finish—prioritizing strong texture, vertical rhythm, and a historic display character for impactful titles and identity work.
The lowercase shows clear blackletter conventions (dense verticals, broken curves, and sharp junctions), and the numerals follow the same faceted, monoline-like blackletter logic for a cohesive set. The heavy texture can cause interior spaces to close up at small sizes, while larger settings emphasize the chiseled detail and repeating vertical rhythm.
