A condensed sans with tall proportions and a compact rhythm. Strokes show noticeable thickness variation, with heavier verticals and slimmer horizontals and joins, giving the letters a slightly sculpted, inked feel. Curves are smooth but tightened, producing small counters in letters like a/e/o and a strong, vertical silhouette overall. Terminals are mostly flat or softly rounded, and the forms keep a consistent, utilitarian geometry across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
This font is best suited to headlines, posters, cover lines, packaging, and brand wordmarks where space is tight but impact is required. It can also work for editorial pull quotes or short bursts of text at larger sizes, especially when a compressed, high-energy look is desired.
The tone is bold and attention-forward, with a lively, slightly retro flavor common to headline and display typography. Its narrow stance and emphasized verticals create urgency and impact, reading as confident and a bit theatrical rather than quiet or neutral.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence in a narrow footprint, balancing condensed proportions with visible stroke modulation to keep forms from feeling purely mechanical. Its consistent vertical emphasis and compact counters suggest a display-first approach aimed at strong typographic color and immediate legibility at larger sizes.
Uppercase shapes stay compact and upright, while lowercase shows tall ascenders and clear single-story forms (notably a and g), reinforcing a contemporary display sensibility. Numerals are similarly condensed and sturdy, maintaining the same vertical emphasis for a cohesive text color in large sizes.
