A tall, tightly set display sans with monoline construction and rounded, superellipse-like curves. Strokes maintain an even, consistent weight, with softened terminals and clean joins that keep the forms crisp despite the extreme vertical proportions. Bowls and counters are narrow and vertically stretched, and many glyphs rely on straight stems paired with rounded shoulders for a refined, architectural rhythm. Numerals follow the same narrow, elongated logic, producing a uniform, columnar texture across lines.
Best suited for headlines and short-to-medium display text where its condensed proportions can add impact without taking much horizontal space. It works well for branding, packaging, editorial titles, and poster typography that benefits from a stylish, vintage-modern voice. In longer passages, it’s likely most effective when set with generous leading and careful tracking to preserve clarity.
The overall tone feels sleek and period-influenced, recalling Art Deco signage and modernist poster typography. Its narrow, upright stance reads poised and formal, while the rounded geometry adds a polished, contemporary smoothness rather than sharp severity. The result is stylish and composed, with a subtle theatricality suited to statement typography.
The font appears designed to deliver a distinctive condensed display voice built from rounded-rectangle geometry, balancing clean modern structure with a clear Deco-era influence. Its consistent stroke weight and disciplined proportions suggest an intention to create a cohesive, poster-ready texture that remains smooth and refined at larger sizes.
The design creates strong vertical emphasis and a distinctive repeating pattern in text, especially in sequences of stems and arches. Curved letters show controlled, rounded shaping that keeps the forms compact without looking cramped, and the punctuation and numerals visually harmonize with the letterforms’ tall proportions.
