A tall, tightly set sans with a consistent forward-leaning construction and monoline strokes. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, giving bowls and counters a squared-off softness rather than perfect circles. Terminals are clean and mostly blunt, and the overall rhythm feels compact, with narrow apertures and elongated verticals that create a strong vertical cadence in text.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and branding systems that benefit from a compact footprint and a distinctive, condensed voice. It can also work for labels, packaging, and wayfinding where space is limited and a lively, retro-leaning texture is desirable.
The face reads energetic and characterful, with a slightly offbeat, hand-drawn-meets-display tone. Its condensed stance and soft-squared curves give it a retro signage feel while staying clean enough for contemporary layouts.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence in a small horizontal measure: a tall, condensed sans that stays friendly through rounded-rectangle curves and controlled, monoline stroke behavior. The consistent lean adds motion and personality, aiming for display clarity and stylistic distinction rather than quiet neutrality.
Uppercase forms are tall and streamlined, while lowercase maintains simple, sturdy shapes with compact counters; numerals follow the same narrow, upright-to-leaning logic. In running text, the slanted construction and tight internal space create a punchy texture that favors short bursts over extended reading.
