A condensed, heavy sans with tall proportions and largely even stroke weight. Forms are built from straight verticals and simplified curved segments, with frequent wedge-like joins and angled terminals that create a carved, cut-paper feel. Counters are narrow and often vertically emphasized; bowls and curves tend to pinch toward the center, producing a compact, stacked rhythm. Overall spacing is tight and the silhouette is strongly vertical, giving words a dense, columnar presence.
Best suited to posters, headlines, signage, and bold branding moments where compact width and strong vertical rhythm are advantages. It can work for short bursts of copy, pull quotes, or packaging labels, especially when a vintage or show-poster flavor is desired.
The style reads as retro and theatrical, with a quirky display energy reminiscent of vintage posters and marquee-era lettering. Its sharp notches and compressed shapes lend a slightly mischievous, attention-grabbing tone rather than a neutral everyday voice.
The design appears intended as a space-efficient display sans that maximizes impact through tall condensed proportions, simplified geometry, and distinctive angled terminals. It prioritizes strong silhouette and character for attention-driven typography.
Uppercase and lowercase share a similarly narrow, vertical construction, helping lines of text feel uniform and emphatic. The numerals follow the same condensed, angular logic, keeping headings and set numbers visually consistent.
