A tall, tightly proportioned sans with a monoline stroke and strongly condensed letterforms. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle (superellipse-like) geometry, giving counters a narrow, softly squared feel rather than fully circular bowls. Terminals are clean and largely unmodulated, with straight verticals dominating the texture and compact apertures throughout. Spacing appears disciplined and consistent, producing an even, vertical rhythm in text; figures follow the same narrow, elongated construction for a cohesive set.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, and short blocks where a compact footprint and strong vertical rhythm are desirable. It can work well for branding, packaging, and editorial display settings that benefit from a clean, condensed voice and a contemporary geometric finish.
The overall tone is cool, controlled, and contemporary, with a fashion-forward, urban edge. Its narrow, towering silhouette reads as deliberate and designed, creating a poised, slightly dramatic presence without feeling ornate.
The design appears intended to deliver an efficient, space-saving display sans with a distinct geometric identity. By combining condensed proportions with rounded-rectangle curves and minimal stroke variation, it aims for a crisp, modern texture that stays consistent across letters and numbers.
In longer lines the condensed proportions create a strong columnar cadence, with tight bowls and apertures emphasizing a streamlined look. The rounded-rectangle logic is especially evident in characters like O/C/G and the digit set, reinforcing a cohesive geometric system across the alphabet and numerals.
