A compact, high-waisted display face with strongly pinched joints and flared stroke terminals that create a wedge-like, slightly calligraphic rhythm. Curves are tight and controlled, with rounded inner counters that read as softened rectangles, while straights stay firm and vertical. Many letters show subtle inward tapering through the stems and outward expansion at ends, producing a lively, uneven texture without losing overall consistency. Lowercase forms are simple and sturdy with a single-storey a and g, a compact e, and short, blunt terminals that keep spacing dense and crisp at larger sizes.
Best suited to headlines, titles, posters, and branding where a compact, distinctive silhouette needs to stand out. It can work for short editorial callouts, book covers, packaging, and identity systems that want a vintage display flavor; for longer passages it is more comfortable at larger sizes with extra leading due to its dense interior spaces.
The tone feels theatrical and vintage-leaning, with a confident, poster-like presence and a slightly eccentric flair. Its narrow proportions and flared endings give it a punchy, headline-forward voice that can feel both classic and a bit offbeat, like mid‑century advertising or book-jacket titling.
The design appears intended to deliver a condensed, high-impact display look that blends geometric rounding with expressive, flared terminals for character. It aims for strong word-shape recognition and a memorable texture in mixed-case settings, prioritizing presence and personality over neutral text economy.
The numerals and capitals carry much of the personality through tapered joins and pronounced terminal shaping, while the lowercase remains relatively restrained, helping mixed-case settings stay readable. The overall color is dark and attention-grabbing, with tight counters and strong vertical emphasis that benefits from generous line spacing in text blocks.
