A condensed display sans with tall, vertical proportions and pronounced stroke modulation that reads as carved or flared rather than purely geometric. Stems are straight and rigid, with sharp terminals and small wedge-like notches that create an incised, stencil-adjacent feel without true breaks. Curves are tightened into narrow bowls and counters, and the overall rhythm is strongly vertical, producing a compact texture in lines of text. The lowercase follows the same architecture as the caps, with simplified forms and restrained apertures that keep the silhouette crisp and columnar.
Best suited to display typography where its vertical punch and cut-in details can be appreciated—posters, headlines, title cards, packaging, and logo/wordmark concepts. It performs especially well in short phrases and stacked layouts where condensed widths help fit copy while maintaining a strong graphic presence.
The tone is unmistakably vintage and architectural, evoking Art Deco signage, early 20th‑century advertising, and dramatic title treatments. Its sharp, cut-in details and disciplined verticality give it a theatrical, slightly ominous presence that feels at home in bold, attention-grabbing settings.
The design appears intended to deliver a period-evocative, architectural display voice: compact, assertive letterforms with decorative, carved modulation that adds drama without relying on serifs. The consistent vertical emphasis suggests it was drawn for impactful headlines and signage-style applications.
In longer samples the dense, dark color and tight counters make it feel authoritative and poster-like; punctuation and numerals match the same chiseled, condensed logic for consistent display impact. The distinctive terminal shaping is a key identifier and will dominate the voice of any composition, especially at larger sizes.
