A tightly condensed, monoline sans with a distinctly faceted construction: curves are simplified into short straight segments and clipped corners, producing small planar breaks at joins and terminals. Strokes stay even in thickness, with clean vertical stress and minimal modulation. The rhythm is vertical and linear, with compact bowls and narrow counters; rounded forms like C, G, O, and S read as polygonal ovals rather than true curves. Terminals tend to be square-cut or slightly chamfered, reinforcing a precise, engineered silhouette.
Best suited to headlines, poster typography, wordmarks, and signage where a tall, condensed profile can save horizontal space while staying distinctive. It also works well for packaging and editorial display settings that want a sharp, Deco-leaning accent without heavy stroke contrast.
The overall tone is sleek and architectural, evoking Art Deco signage and streamlined industrial graphics. Its crisp angles and narrow stance feel efficient, metropolitan, and slightly futuristic, with a refined display character rather than a soft everyday texture.
The design appears intended to reinterpret a geometric sans through planar cuts and chamfered corners, trading smooth curves for crisp facets to create a streamlined, display-forward voice. Its proportions prioritize height and compact width for impactful, space-efficient titling.
Capitals appear especially tall and stately, and the numeral set follows the same faceted geometry for a cohesive word-and-number color. The tight internal spaces and sharp joins suggest it will look clearest with generous tracking and at display sizes where the small facets can be appreciated.
