A condensed display sans with a geometric, rounded-rectangle construction and gently softened corners throughout. Strokes are fairly even with subtle contrast, and curves tend to resolve into vertical terminals that feel cut and controlled rather than fully circular. The lowercase shows tall ascenders and a relatively compact x-height, giving text a vertical, high-waisted rhythm. Counters are narrow and clean, with simplified joins and minimal modulation, producing a crisp, poster-friendly silhouette.
Best suited to headlines, posters, signage, and brand marks where its condensed, stylized shapes can carry personality at larger sizes. It also works well for packaging and editorial display lines that want a retro-modern flavor without ornamentation.
The overall tone feels Art Deco–leaning and theatrical, with a refined, metropolitan attitude. Its tall proportions and engineered curves suggest vintage signage and early modernist typography, balancing elegance with a slightly playful quirk in the more distinctive letters.
The design appears intended to provide an Art Deco-inspired, geometric display voice with condensed proportions and rounded-rectangle forms that stay consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures. It prioritizes striking silhouettes and a tight, vertical rhythm for impactful titling.
Round letters like O/C/G read more like superelliptical capsules than true circles, reinforcing the architectural feel. The numerals follow the same condensed, rounded-rect logic and stay visually consistent with the caps, supporting cohesive titling and numbering in layouts.
