A condensed, display-oriented face built from slender vertical strokes and sharp, triangular terminals. The forms favor straight sides and pointed joins, with occasional curved bowls kept taut and narrow. Many glyphs show stylized, wedge-like finishing details and a distinctly segmented rhythm, creating a crisp, graphic texture in both caps and lowercase. Figures are similarly narrow and angular, with a rigid, poster-like stance and clear contrast between thin hairlines and thicker stems.
Best used for headlines, posters, cover typography, and title sequences where its angular contrast and condensed width can create impact. It can work for short bursts of text, but it is most effective when set larger and with comfortable tracking so the sharp terminals and narrow counters remain clear.
The overall tone feels Deco-leaning and theatrical, with an elegant but slightly ominous edge created by the dagger-like terminals and compressed proportions. It reads as vintage and cinematic, suited to titles that want drama and a curated, design-forward personality rather than neutrality.
The design intention appears to be a stylized, modern display sans with Deco and engraved cues—prioritizing striking silhouettes, verticality, and memorable terminals to create a distinctive voice for branding and titling.
Spacing appears intentionally tight and vertical, producing a strong columnar rhythm in text lines. Several letters introduce idiosyncratic detailing (notably in diagonals and terminals), which increases character but can call attention to individual forms at smaller sizes.
