Author's note

SF Phosphorus Trichloride, designed by Derek Vogelpohl of ShyFoundry, is a free high-contrast display serif with an elegant, severe profile. Its towering narrow letters shift abruptly from broad strokes to hairline-thin curves. The long, tapered forms feel theatrical.

As a dramatic title treatment, it suits fashion editorials and perfume packaging built around elongated silhouettes. Its sharp contrast can also lend poster work the poised tension of a vintage theatrical bill. Book covers and event invitations also suit its gothic elegance.
