This typeface is a sharply condensed, vertical design with pronounced thick–thin contrast. Curves are smooth and controlled, with rounded-rectangle (superellipse-like) bowls and open apertures that keep counters legible despite the narrow set. Strokes transition cleanly from hairline joins to heavier verticals, and terminals are generally blunt and minimal, producing a crisp, contemporary texture. The lowercase shows a relatively tall x-height for the overall narrow proportions, while caps and ascenders read notably tall, reinforcing a columnar rhythm.
Best suited for headlines, decks, pull quotes, and other large-size editorial typography where its condensed proportions and contrast can create punch without consuming horizontal space. It can also work well in branding, packaging, and poster systems that benefit from a tall, elegant voice and tightly stacked typography.
The overall tone feels editorial and fashion-forward: poised, slightly dramatic, and refined. Its high-contrast construction suggests sophistication and a premium voice, while the tight width and upright stance add a modern, structured edge.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern condensed look with fashion/editorial polish, combining superellipse-based round forms with crisp high-contrast strokes for a premium, attention-grabbing typographic texture.
Text setting shows strong vertical emphasis and an even, repeating rhythm, making lines look tidy and high-impact. Round letters like o/e/c stay compact with clean interior space, and the numerals follow the same narrow, high-contrast logic for consistent color in mixed content.
