A condensed display sans with a tall, vertical stance and pronounced thick–thin modulation that reads like a modern, high-contrast lineal. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, giving bowls and counters a superelliptical feel, while terminals stay clean and minimally treated. The overall rhythm is narrow and upward, with long ascenders/descenders and a steady baseline, producing a sleek, poster-like texture in text settings. Numerals follow the same streamlined logic, with compact widths and sharply controlled curves.
Best suited for headlines, cover lines, posters, and identity work where a tall, sleek silhouette can carry the composition. It can also function in short editorial pull quotes or subheads, especially in layouts that benefit from a compact measure and a fashion-oriented tone.
The font projects a refined, cinematic tone with strong Art Deco echoes—glamorous, composed, and slightly theatrical. Its narrow proportions and glossy contrast create a sense of luxury and formality, suited to fashion-forward or nightlife-adjacent branding without becoming ornate.
The design appears intended to blend modern, minimalist sans structure with Deco-inspired verticality and sculpted contrast, creating a distinctive display voice that feels both contemporary and classic. Its superelliptical curves and restrained terminals suggest an aim for a controlled, premium look rather than a utilitarian text face.
Distinctive rounded-rectangle construction is especially evident in letters with bowls and arches, creating a consistent, engineered silhouette across capitals, lowercase, and figures. The condensed spacing and high contrast make it feel most at home at medium-to-large sizes where its sculpted shapes and internal counters remain clear.
