A condensed display sans built from rounded-rectangle forms and tight vertical proportions. Strokes are largely monolinear with crisp terminals and minimal modulation, creating a clean, graphic silhouette. Curves resolve into squared, superelliptical bowls, and counters are narrow and vertical, giving the alphabet a tall, columnar rhythm. Joins and apertures are controlled and compact, with consistently straight-sided verticals and simplified geometry across both uppercase and lowercase.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and branding where a compact, high-impact wordmark is needed. It also works well for signage and packaging systems that benefit from a consistent, architectural rhythm and efficient horizontal footprint. In longer passages it reads as a stylized display face rather than a general text workhorse.
The overall tone feels Art Deco and architectural, with a sleek, metropolitan cool. Its tall, narrow stance and rounded-rectangular construction suggest vintage signage and early modernist display lettering while still reading as contemporary and precise.
The design appears intended to deliver a distinctive, space-saving display voice by combining condensed proportions with rounded-rectangular geometry. It prioritizes graphic uniformity and a strong vertical cadence for impactful titling and identity applications.
The texture in text is strongly vertical and tightly spaced by nature of the condensed shapes, which emphasizes word silhouettes and headline impact. Numerals follow the same narrow, squared-round construction, keeping mixed text and figures visually cohesive.
