Heavy condensed mixed case with flared feet and a tall narrow l
Flarion
Flarion is a heavy condensed serif in which the bodies compress tall, the counters stay compact, the feet finish in pointed flares and the ascenders rise high with an oversized round i dot, so a name reads as dense fashion lettering.

Visual anatomy & craft review
Letterform structure
of Flarion.
The F ends in a pointed flared foot, the final n mirrors that splay, the l climbs well above the x-height and the i carries a large round dot that sits as its own mark. The condensed rhythm is the character: the letters stack tight and vertical, which is why the sample sets one word beside a portrait on a cover. Because the flares need air, keep 8 mm between letters from 28 pt, and the point of a foot is the first thing to lose at small size. The thin frame and barcode belong to the cover layout; the pale lettering is the face.

Cover line for a fashion issue
The condensed mass sets a cover title, and the flared feet give a one-word name an edge at 72 pt on a coated cover. The dense rhythm suits a single-word cover where a wider face would crowd the image.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print an A4 cover: set the title at 72 pt on one row across the lower third, keep 20 mm of clear ground beneath for the flared feet, and set the issue word in a 9 pt caps at the head.
Pre-production check
Pointed feet printed at 24 pt close into blunt stubs; check the film and keep the title at 50 pt or above. Ask for the film at 1200 dpi.
Label for a leather goods maker
The dense serif gives a small label weight, and the compact bodies keep the name solid at 22 pt on a 45 mm panel in one ink. The flared feet give the label a period edge without ornament.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 45 by 30 mm label: set the name at 22 pt, keep 4 mm of border so the flared feet are not trimmed, and set the city in a 6 pt caps beneath with 4 mm of clear ground. Trim to a rectangle rather than a die curve.
Pre-production check
Foil on an uncoated label spreads the flares at 18 pt; check the proof and keep the name at 20 pt or above. Foil also closes the counters on a small label.
Heading for a winter wedding
The heavy condensed row suits a formal suite, and the tall ascenders keep two names on one line at 24 pt on heavy card. The pointed feet need a smooth card at that size.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 130 by 180 mm card: set the names at 24 pt on one row, keep 16 mm beneath for the flared feet, and set the venue at 9 pt in a light serif with 12 mm of clear ground below the names.
Pre-production check
A condensed row printed flush to the card edge looks cramped; check the proof and keep 16 mm of margin. Set both names on one card before the run.
