This typeface is a condensed geometric sans with a distinctly rectilinear construction softened by rounded, superellipse-like corners. Strokes read as largely monolinear, with smooth curves that transition into straight sides, producing oval and bowl shapes that feel like rounded rectangles rather than perfect circles. Terminals are clean and controlled, and counters are compact, giving the design a tight, vertical rhythm. The overall texture is even and orderly, with clear, simple forms and minimal ornamental detail.
It performs best in display contexts where its condensed width and distinctive rounded-rect shapes can be appreciated—headlines, posters, editorial titling, and identity work. It can also suit packaging and signage where a refined, retro-modern look is desired, especially at moderate-to-large sizes.
The tone is poised and stylized, combining a vintage display sensibility with a contemporary, minimal finish. Its tall, streamlined letterforms and rounded-rect geometry suggest Art Deco and signage influences without feeling overly decorative. The result is a calm, upscale voice that reads as modernist, curated, and slightly theatrical.
The design appears intended to deliver a recognizable geometric signature—superellipse-based rounds paired with strict vertical structure—while keeping stroke behavior simple and consistent. It aims for a fashionable, architectural display voice that remains clean and legible in short-to-medium text settings.
Several glyphs emphasize the font’s signature geometry: rounded-rect bowls, narrow apertures, and consistent vertical emphasis across capitals, lowercase, and numerals. In text, the condensed proportions create a strong columnar flow, while the softened corners prevent the texture from becoming brittle or overly mechanical.
