A tall, condensed sans with consistent monoline strokes and softly squared curves that read as rounded-rectangle geometry. Counters are narrow and vertical, with rounded terminals and clean joins that keep the texture even in tight settings. Uppercase forms are especially elongated, while lowercase maintains a straightforward, legible structure with compact bowls and minimal modulation.
Best suited for headlines, posters, packaging, and wordmarks where its tall, compact footprint can maximize impact in limited horizontal space. It works well for branding that wants a refined retro note, and for editorial display lines where a clean, narrow texture helps maintain structure in dense layouts.
The overall tone feels streamlined and architectural, with a distinctly vintage display flavor reminiscent of early 20th‑century poster lettering. Its narrow proportions and rounded-rectilinear curves give it a sleek, metropolitan character that can feel both retro and modern depending on context.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, space-saving display sans with a distinctive rounded-rectangular construction. It prioritizes consistent stroke weight and a strong vertical silhouette to create a recognizable, period-tinged voice that remains clean and controlled.
The figures follow the same condensed, rounded-rectilinear construction as the letters, producing a cohesive voice for mixed alphanumeric settings. The rhythm in text is airy yet insistent, with strong vertical emphasis and a controlled, uniform color that favors display sizes and short runs.
