About

The designer cites no direct historical references, yet the typeface carries a clear archaic quality closest to Middle Age lettering. With no OpenType features, it is a straightforward display face suited to editorial headings, packaging and branding where a gothic tone is needed.
Classification
The foundry classifies it as Display and describes it as a modern blackletter evoking a medieval archaic impression, placing it squarely in the blackletter category with a contemporary approach.
