A tall, condensed sans with a delicate monoline stroke and generous vertical proportions. Forms lean on simple geometric construction—rounded corners, narrow bowls, and long ascenders/descenders—creating a clean, linear rhythm. Curves are smooth and controlled, counters are tight, and terminals are mostly plain with occasional rounded finishes, giving the set a consistent, streamlined silhouette across caps, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited to display sizes where its slender strokes and condensed width can read cleanly—headlines, posters, wordmarks, and packaging with a premium or retro-modern angle. It can work for short editorial pull quotes or titling, but longer passages will benefit from ample size and spacing due to the tight counters and fine strokes.
The overall tone feels Art Deco–adjacent and modernist: poised, stylish, and slightly theatrical while staying restrained. Its airy stroke weight and elongated shapes convey elegance and sophistication, with a cool, design-forward character rather than a utilitarian one.
The design appears aimed at delivering a distinctive, stylish condensed sans that evokes early modern signage and Deco-inspired lettering while remaining crisp and minimal. Its emphasis on verticality and simplified geometry suggests a priority on visual identity and elegance over everyday text neutrality.
Distinctive glyph personality comes through in several sculpted joins and compact apertures, which add charm but also make some letters feel more display-oriented than purely functional. The numerals mirror the same tall, linear construction, supporting a cohesive typographic color in mixed text.
