A tightly condensed display face built from vertical, rounded-rectangle strokes and smooth superelliptical curves. Many letters share a consistent narrow core with softly capped terminals, while counters tend to be tall and oval, producing a strong vertical rhythm. The design leans on simplified construction—straight stems, restrained joins, and minimal detailing—creating crisp silhouettes and a poster-like presence. Numerals follow the same condensed, rounded architecture for a cohesive texture in mixed text.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings where its condensed, vertical rhythm can create impactful blocks of text—posters, headlines, mastheads, and logo wordmarks. It can also work on packaging and labels where a vintage-modern voice is desired, especially when set with generous leading and careful tracking.
The overall tone reads as Art Deco–influenced and stage-poster confident, with a polished, metropolitan feel. Its tall, sculpted forms suggest classic cinema titling and vintage packaging, delivering drama without becoming ornamental. The narrow proportions add urgency and density, which can feel energetic and slightly mysterious.
The design appears intended to provide a distinctive condensed display option with a streamlined Deco sensibility—combining architectural vertical stems and rounded-rectangle curves to deliver strong presence in limited horizontal space. It prioritizes recognizable, consistent silhouettes and a confident headline texture over neutral body-text invisibility.
Roundness is expressed more through squared-off curves and softened corners than through purely circular geometry, giving the face a machined, architectural quality. The texture stays consistent across uppercase and lowercase, and the condensed spacing encourages compact composition in headlines.
