A tall, condensed monoline sans with smooth, rounded bowls and a clean, even stroke. Proportions are strongly vertical, with long ascenders and descenders and compact lowercase bodies, creating an airy rhythm and lots of white space between forms. Curves are simple and geometric, while joins and terminals stay crisp and minimal; a few glyphs introduce distinctive, decorative gestures (notably the circular O with an internal dot and the Q with a long, sweeping tail). Numerals follow the same slim, elongated construction, keeping a consistent vertical cadence.
Best suited to short display settings such as headlines, posters, title treatments, and brand marks where its condensed height and quirky details can be appreciated. It can also work for packaging or editorial pull quotes when set with generous tracking and comfortable line spacing.
The overall tone feels retro and theatrical—light on its feet, slightly quirky, and intentionally stylized. Its narrow, high-waisted silhouettes read as elegant yet playful, lending a boutique or Art Deco-leaning character without becoming ornate.
The design appears intended as a characterful display sans that combines simple geometric curves with elongated proportions to evoke a vintage, showcard-like presence. Signature glyph details provide memorability for logos and titling while keeping the overall construction clean and minimal.
Because many letters are built from slender verticals and open curves, the design reads best when given room to breathe. The very tall capitals and long extenders create a distinctive texture in mixed-case settings, with a noticeable emphasis on vertical motion across lines of text.
