This typeface is extremely condensed with tall, column-like letterforms built from mostly uniform strokes. Terminals are sharply pointed and faceted, often forming small diamond or spearhead ends that give the outlines a cut-metal feel. Curves are minimized into narrow ovals and clipped corners, creating a consistent vertical rhythm with occasional internal notches and split strokes that add decorative complexity. The overall texture is dark and linear, with tight counters and a strong emphasis on vertical stems.
Best suited to short display settings where its condensed, spiky texture can read as a deliberate stylistic choice—titles, posters, packaging accents, and entertainment branding. It works well when paired with a simple supporting text face and given generous spacing to keep the sharp details from crowding.
The tone is gothic and theatrical, mixing an old-world blackletter echo with an offbeat, stylized geometry. Its sharp points and narrow proportions feel intense and slightly menacing, while the quirky constructions keep it firmly in a decorative, attention-seeking register.
The design appears intended to deliver a distinctive, blackletter-tinged display voice through extreme verticality and faceted terminals, prioritizing visual character and mood over neutral readability in long text.
Capitals and lowercase share a similarly tall profile, which reinforces a uniform, banner-like rhythm in text. Numerals follow the same narrow, pointed construction, reading as carved and ornamental rather than utilitarian.
