A highly condensed display sans with tall, attenuated proportions and a rhythmic, slightly uneven width across characters. Strokes are mostly monoline but often taper into sharp points, with frequent wedge-like terminals and occasional flared joins that create a chiseled, cut-paper feel. Curves are drawn as narrow ovals and arcs (notably in C, O, Q, and 0), while diagonals and junctions in letters like K, M, N, V, W, and X form crisp, angular silhouettes. The lowercase follows the same narrow architecture with a compact x-height and long ascenders, producing a vertical, stretched texture in text.
Best used at display sizes for posters, headlines, title cards, and stylized signage where its narrow footprint and sharp terminals can add personality. It can also work for short packaging copy or branding lockups when a retro, dramatic tone is desired, but the condensed structure favors larger sizes for clarity.
The overall tone is dramatic and stylized, evoking vintage poster lettering and Art Deco-era display type with a slightly uncanny, fantastical edge. The pointed terminals and tense verticality give it a theatrical, mysterious voice that feels suited to titles meant to intrigue rather than blend in.
This font appears designed to deliver a distinctive, period-evocative display voice through condensed proportions and pointed, wedge-like terminals, prioritizing atmosphere and silhouette over neutrality for continuous reading.
Spacing and letterfit read intentionally tight and columnar, creating strong vertical stripes in paragraphs. Numerals and punctuation echo the same tapered, angular construction, helping mixed text maintain a consistent ornamental flavor.
