A sharply condensed display sans with extreme vertical proportions and a pronounced thick–thin modulation. Stems are straight and crisp, while bowls and counters are built from rounded-rectangle (superellipse-like) curves that keep the forms smooth and controlled rather than fully circular. The texture alternates between heavy verticals and hairline connectors, creating a striped rhythm; apertures are tight and spacing feels deliberately compact. Terminals are clean and mostly flat, with occasional tapered joins where diagonals meet, and a consistent upright stance throughout.
Best suited to large-size settings where the contrast and narrow width can create impact: headlines, posters, event promotions, magazine cover lines, and branding or logotypes that want a sleek vertical signature. It can also work for short packaging callouts and signage-style titling when ample size and spacing are available.
The overall tone is glamorous and stage-like, evoking vintage nightlife and Art Deco-era signage. Its high drama and elongated silhouettes read as stylish and slightly theatrical, with a refined, boutique editorial feel.
Designed to deliver maximum presence in minimal horizontal space, combining condensed geometry with elegant contrast for a vintage-modern display voice. The superelliptic curves and strict vertical rhythm suggest an intention to feel both architectural and luxurious, optimized for striking titles rather than extended reading.
In text, the strong vertical emphasis makes word shapes tall and narrow, and the contrasty hairlines can visually recede at smaller sizes. The rounded-rectangle construction gives letters like O/Q/0 a distinctive, architectural softness that balances the rigid condensed structure.
