A tightly condensed sans with monoline strokes and strongly rounded, superellipse-like bowls. Many letters feature distinctive internal vertical cut-ins or slit-like counters that create a sculpted, stencil-adjacent look without breaking the outer silhouette. Curves are smooth and pill-shaped, terminals are clean and blunt, and the overall rhythm is vertical and columnar, with compact apertures and compact interior spaces at text sizes.
Best suited to display settings where its condensed silhouette and decorative internal cuts can be appreciated—posters, headlines, wordmarks, packaging fronts, menu titles, and signage. It can work for short bursts of text, but the tight counters and stylized apertures suggest using it larger and with generous spacing for maximum clarity.
The font evokes a classic display sensibility with clear Art Deco and vintage sign-painting cues. Its tall, narrow stance and carved-in counters feel theatrical and slightly mysterious, lending a stylized, period atmosphere rather than a neutral modern voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, space-efficient display voice with a vintage geometric flavor. By pairing rounded-rectangle construction with incised counter details, it aims to feel both structured and ornamental—ideal for attention-grabbing titles and branding with a retro tone.
Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent narrow footprint and rounded-rectangle construction, producing an even, stacked texture in lines of text. Numerals follow the same vertical, rounded geometry and read as display figures designed to match the alphabet’s sculpted counter shapes.
