A highly condensed sans with extreme vertical proportions and pronounced stroke contrast. Curves are drawn as smooth, rounded-rectangle bowls, while horizontals and terminals stay crisp and controlled, creating a clean, poster-like rhythm. Counters are narrow and tall, spacing is tight, and the overall texture reads as a sequence of dark vertical strokes punctuated by slender curves. Numerals follow the same tall, compact logic, with simplified, display-oriented shapes.
Best suited to headlines, mastheads, and short display lines where its condensed width and high contrast can create impact. It works well for fashion/editorial layouts, branding systems that want a tall signature, and packaging where vertical rhythm and sophistication are priorities. For body text or small UI sizes, the tight counters and dense texture may call for generous tracking and larger sizes.
The font projects a sleek, fashion-forward tone with a strong Art Deco and modern editorial flavor. Its tall, glossy silhouette feels dramatic and upscale, evoking magazine mastheads, packaging, and nightlife signage. The contrast and compression add a sense of theatricality and precision rather than warmth.
This design appears intended to deliver a glamorous, space-saving display voice: a tall, condensed sans that pairs geometric rounded bowls with sharp, controlled terminals for maximum vertical drama. The consistent narrow proportions suggest it’s built to stack tightly in layouts while remaining visually distinctive.
Uppercase forms lean on vertical stems with minimal lateral breadth, making words feel dense and towering. Several letters show distinctive curved lower terminals and tight apertures, which boosts personality but can reduce clarity at small sizes. The overall impression is intentionally stylized and display-centric.
