A tightly condensed sans with tall proportions and a strongly vertical rhythm. Strokes are sturdy with restrained contrast, and terminals are clean and mostly blunt, giving a crisp, print-forward texture. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, producing squared-off bowls and smooth, controlled rounding rather than fully circular forms. Counters are compact and apertures tend to be narrow, creating a dense, efficient color that remains organized in lines of text.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and other space-conscious display settings where a compact width and strong vertical emphasis are assets. It can work well for magazine layouts, brand wordmarks, packaging panels, and signage that benefits from a dense, high-impact line. In longer passages it will appear tight and intense, so it’s most effective when paired with generous leading and simpler companion text faces.
The overall tone feels editorial and fashion-leaning: sleek, compressed, and confident. Its narrow silhouette and disciplined geometry convey a contemporary, utilitarian modernism with a slightly dramatic, poster-ready presence.
This design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in minimal horizontal space, using controlled superelliptical curves and tall proportions to create a modern condensed voice. The consistent geometry and sturdy strokes suggest an emphasis on clarity and repeatable visual rhythm across letters and figures.
Uppercase forms read especially tall and commanding, while the lowercase maintains a straightforward, workmanlike structure with simple joins and minimal detailing. Numerals follow the same condensed, vertical logic, supporting a consistent typographic system for headlines and data callouts.
