A tall, condensed sans with mostly monoline strokes and smooth, rounded curves. The letterforms are compact and vertically emphasized, with narrow counters and tight internal spaces that create a strong, dark rhythm in text. Curved characters like C, G, O, and S feel elliptical rather than perfectly circular, while straight-sided forms (H, N, M) read crisp and controlled. Terminals are clean and minimally treated, giving the set a streamlined, display-oriented appearance.
This font is well suited to short-form display work such as headlines, posters, and impactful branding where a tall, compact word shape is useful. It can also work for packaging and signage that benefits from strong vertical emphasis and a consistent, dark typographic color.
The overall tone feels retro and poster-like, with a playful theatrical edge driven by its extreme verticality and compact spacing. It conveys confidence and punch without feeling ornate, balancing a clean sans construction with a distinctive, attention-grabbing silhouette.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence in minimal horizontal space, creating a distinctive condensed voice while keeping construction simple and clean. Its consistent stroke behavior and narrow counters suggest a focus on bold, readable display typography with a vintage-leaning character.
In the sample text, the tight counters and condensed proportions produce high visual density, helping headlines feel impactful but suggesting more careful sizing for extended reading. Numerals share the same tall, compact stance, maintaining a consistent texture across mixed alphanumeric settings.
