A tightly condensed, high-contrast sans with sharply tapered strokes and crisp terminals. Vertical stems dominate, while curves and joins show a subtle swelling that creates a sculpted rhythm without added ornament. Counters are narrow and tall, and the overall texture is dark and vertical, with clean, straight-sided forms in letters like E, F, H, and N balanced by taut, upright curves in C, G, and O. Numerals follow the same condensed, tapered logic, producing a cohesive, poster-ready set.
Best suited to headlines and short-form typography where its condensed proportions and contrast can create impact without taking much horizontal space. It works well for magazine mastheads, posters, packaging, and branding that benefits from a refined, dramatic voice; for longer passages, it will be more comfortable at larger sizes with generous leading.
The tone feels refined and theatrical, mixing modern clarity with a vintage, display-oriented flavor. Its narrow, towering proportions and chiseled contrast suggest confidence and formality, lending a slightly Art Deco–leaning, editorial mood.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, attention-grabbing display voice that stays clean and contemporary while borrowing a classic, high-contrast rhythm. Its emphasis on tall verticals and tapered joins suggests a goal of elegance and punch in space-constrained layouts.
Round letters are drawn with restrained width and firm curvature, keeping spacing compact and the silhouette strongly vertical. The lowercase remains legible at display sizes, with simple, single-storey forms and minimal flourish, while punctuation and spacing in the sample text read as intentionally tight and impactful.
