A tall, tightly condensed sans with pronounced stroke contrast and a strongly vertical rhythm. Stems are thick and straight, while joins and terminals reduce to hairline-thin connections, creating a crisp, cut-paper feel. Curves are narrow and controlled, with rounded-rectangle/superellipse-like bowls that stay compact rather than fully circular. Overall spacing is economical and the texture reads as a sequence of dark verticals punctuated by delicate hairline features, giving the design a sharp, elongated silhouette.
Best suited to headlines, cover lines, and large-size editorial typography where its contrast and condensed proportions can create impact without occupying much horizontal space. It can also work for branding and packaging that benefit from a sleek, upscale tone, especially in short words and prominent labels.
The tone is sleek and fashion-forward, with a cool, editorial drama. Its contrast and extreme verticality feel poised and slightly theatrical, suggesting luxury, nightlife, and high-end publishing rather than casual everyday text.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum vertical elegance and graphic punch through extreme condensation and high contrast, producing a distinctive display voice optimized for attention-grabbing titles and brand statements.
Round letters like O and Q appear as tall, slim ovals with minimal internal space, reinforcing the condensed color on the page. Several lowercase forms lean toward simplified, sign-like constructions with thin entry/exit strokes, and the numerals follow the same tall, narrow, high-contrast logic for a cohesive typographic voice.
