A condensed, high-contrast sans with tall proportions and a strong vertical rhythm. Stems are predominantly straight and upright, while curves are drawn with a slightly softened, sculpted feel that creates subtle swelling and tapering through joins. Counters are compact and often vertically oriented, giving the forms a streamlined, poster-like presence. The overall texture reads crisp and dark in caps, with narrower lowercase shapes and compact sidebearings that keep lines tight and orderly.
Best suited to display typography where height, contrast, and compact width can work to advantage—posters, headlines, title treatments, and brand marks. It can also add a vintage accent to packaging or editorial callouts, especially where space is tight and a strong vertical rhythm is desired.
The tone suggests a vintage, stage-and-marquee sensibility: stylish, slightly dramatic, and carefully composed. Its narrow build and contrast lend an upscale, editorial mood while still feeling bold enough for display settings.
The design appears intended to deliver a condensed, high-contrast sans voice with a classic show-card or Art Deco-leaning flavor—optimized for impactful titles and branding while retaining enough clarity for short passages and supporting text.
Several glyphs emphasize verticality and symmetry, with rounded tops and bottoms that feel intentionally shaped rather than purely geometric. Numerals follow the same condensed, contrasted logic, maintaining a cohesive color and cadence in mixed text.
