A tightly condensed display face with tall proportions, strong vertical stems, and rounded-rectangle curves that keep counters narrow and clean. Stroke modulation is subtle but present, with weight concentrating on verticals and thinning on joins and horizontals, producing a crisp, sculpted rhythm. Terminals tend to be flat and controlled, while bowls and shoulders are compact and slightly squarish in their rounding, giving letters a taut, engineered silhouette. The lowercase reads with a normal x-height relative to the very tall ascenders, and the numerals are similarly narrow with firm, high-contrast details in joints and bowls.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and cover typography where condensation and strong vertical rhythm help fit more characters per line without losing presence. It can work well for branding, packaging, and campaign graphics that want a modern, high-impact voice, especially in large sizes or short blocks of text.
The overall tone is striking and editorial—confident, slightly dramatic, and fashion-forward. Its compressed stance and sharp rhythm suggest urgency and sophistication, leaning more toward headline impact than quiet neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a condensed, high-impact texture with controlled geometry—pairing rounded-rectangle curves with firm terminals to create a modern display voice. It prioritizes vertical emphasis and space efficiency while maintaining a polished, editorial finish.
Spacing appears calibrated for tight columns and large sizes, with an even vertical cadence across text lines. Several forms show intentionally narrow apertures and compact counters, which heightens density and strengthens the poster-like presence while potentially demanding more size for comfortable long-form reading.
