A tightly condensed oblique sans with monoline strokes and a strong vertical emphasis. Curves are built from softened, rounded-rectangle forms, giving bowls and counters an elongated superellipse feel. Terminals are clean and minimally treated, with smooth joins and consistent stroke behavior that keeps the rhythm even in narrow widths. The lowercase shows a tall x-height and compact apertures, while the numerals mirror the same narrow, upright proportions with rounded corners and clear, simplified shapes.
Best suited for headlines, poster typography, mastheads, and branding where a tall, condensed voice can maximize impact in limited horizontal space. It also works well on packaging, labels, and promotional graphics that benefit from a sleek, retro-leaning tone. For longer passages, it will perform most comfortably at larger sizes with generous line spacing.
The overall tone is streamlined and energetic, with a distinctly retro display flavor. Its lean stance and elongated forms suggest speed and motion, while the rounded geometry keeps it friendly rather than sharp. It reads as modernized mid-century/Art Deco adjacent—stylish, confident, and attention-seeking.
The design appears intended to deliver a space-efficient, display-forward sans that blends geometric rounded construction with a consistent oblique slant. It prioritizes visual momentum and a distinctive narrow silhouette while keeping forms simple and uniform for clean reproduction.
Spacing appears tight and columnar, producing a strong vertical texture in text. The oblique angle is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, which helps maintain cohesion in long lines. The design’s narrow proportions favor headline impact over relaxed, airy reading.
