A condensed display face built from predominantly straight, monoline strokes with selectively rounded corners and oval bowls. The forms are tall and tightly set, with crisp terminals that often taper into pointed or chisel-like ends, creating a sharp rhythm along verticals. Counters tend to be narrow and vertically oriented, and several letters use stylized constructions (notably in diagonals and joints) that read more like drawn signage than text typography. Overall proportions emphasize height and compact width, producing an assertive, column-like texture in words.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and short title lines where its condensed footprint and stylized details can read clearly at larger sizes. It can add a period-signage character to branding and packaging, especially where a dramatic, vintage display voice is desired.
The overall tone evokes early 20th‑century show lettering and Art Deco-era signage—sleek, dramatic, and slightly mysterious. Its sharp inner angles and pinched curves lend a theatrical, noir-leaning flavor that feels suited to titles and display moments rather than neutral reading.
The design appears intended as a compact, attention-grabbing display sans with a vintage sign-lettering sensibility, prioritizing distinctive silhouettes and a strong vertical rhythm over neutrality and long-form text comfort.
Uppercase and lowercase share a closely related structure, with the lowercase staying similarly narrow and upright for a unified, poster-like color. Numerals mirror the same vertical emphasis and pointed details, keeping the set consistent in headlines and short labels.
