A tall, tightly condensed sans with striking contrast between heavy vertical stems and hairline horizontals and joins. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle forms, giving counters a smooth, squarish softness while keeping edges crisp. The overall rhythm is strongly vertical, with narrow apertures, compact bowls, and consistently thin crossbars that heighten the graphic snap. Numerals and punctuation follow the same compressed, vertical logic, producing a cohesive, poster-like texture in text.
Best for display settings such as headlines, posters, magazine titling, and brand marks where vertical emphasis and contrast can create impact. It can also work for short subheads or pull quotes when sized generously and given enough line spacing to preserve clarity.
The tone is bold and theatrical, with a fashion-editorial presence that feels modern and slightly vintage in its high-contrast narrowness. It reads as confident and attention-grabbing, suited to punchy statements rather than quiet body copy.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in minimal horizontal space, combining condensed proportions with high-contrast structure and rounded-rectangle curves for a distinctive, contemporary display voice.
In running text the condensed proportions create dense word shapes, and the extreme contrast makes horizontal strokes visually delicate at smaller sizes. The rounded-rectangle construction keeps the design from feeling cold, adding a subtle softness to an otherwise sharp, display-driven silhouette.
