A condensed display face built from straight, vertical strokes and softly rounded, rectangular curves. The design relies on pronounced stroke contrast, with hairline horizontals and inner joins set against sturdier vertical stems, creating a crisp, tensile rhythm. Counters are compact and upright, terminals are clean and largely unadorned, and round characters resolve into narrow, superelliptical shapes rather than true circles. Spacing appears tight and economical, reinforcing a tall, columnar texture in words and lines.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, and large-scale typographic settings where its contrast and narrow proportions can read cleanly and add sophistication. It can work well for magazine layouts, fashion/beauty branding, packaging, and elegant poster typography, particularly when paired with a calmer text face.
The overall tone is poised and editorial, balancing elegance with a contemporary, minimalist edge. Its sharp contrast and narrow stance feel fashion-forward and architectural, giving text a cool, controlled presence rather than warmth or softness.
The design appears intended to deliver an elegant, space-saving display voice with a modern construction—using superelliptical curves and high contrast to create a refined, editorial look that stays crisp and contemporary.
In continuous text the strong vertical emphasis produces a distinctive striping effect, while thin crossbars and delicate connections add sparkle at larger sizes. Some letters feature simplified, almost monoline interior details that heighten the graphic, poster-like character, especially in capitals.
