A sharply condensed, monoline sans with tall proportions and an emphatically vertical stance. Letterforms are built from straight, rectilinear strokes with squared terminals and minimal curvature; bowls and counters tend toward narrow, boxy shapes. The overall rhythm is tight and columnar, with occasional stepped joins and angled diagonals that create a faceted, constructed feel. Lowercase forms follow the same narrow, upright logic with a relatively tall x-height, while numerals are similarly slim and linear, reinforcing a consistent, engineered texture.
Best suited to short, display-driven text where its condensed structure and high vertical rhythm can create impact—headlines, posters, title cards, and brand marks. It can also work for packaging or editorial pull quotes when generous tracking and leading are available to preserve clarity.
The font projects a sleek, retro-modern attitude that reads as both Art Deco–adjacent and technical. Its narrow, elongated silhouettes feel architectural and slightly theatrical, lending a sense of precision, sophistication, and stylized restraint.
The design appears intended to deliver a stylized, constructed sans for display use, prioritizing a tall, narrow silhouette and geometric consistency over conventional text readability. Its rectilinear, monoline construction suggests a deliberate nod to Deco-era signage and modernist technical lettering translated into a contemporary, minimal stroke system.
The stark stroke economy and compressed widths create strong vertical patterning, especially in settings with repeated stems (e.g., m/n/u). Distinctive, angular diagonals in letters like K, V, W, X and the stepped construction in several glyphs add personality while keeping the overall system rigid and geometric.
