A condensed, monoline sans with tall proportions and a compact horizontal footprint. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, giving bowls and counters a softly squared, superelliptical feel rather than purely circular forms. Strokes stay even and straight-sided, with tight apertures and narrow interior spaces that reinforce a vertical rhythm. Terminals are clean and blunt, and the overall drawing prioritizes clarity of silhouette over calligraphic modulation.
Best suited to headlines, posters, packaging, and branding where a condensed vertical rhythm helps fit more characters per line while staying bold in silhouette. It can also work for signage and short UI labels when set with comfortable spacing, as the tight apertures and narrow counters can close up at smaller sizes.
The tone is modern and utilitarian, with an efficient, space-saving presence that feels at home in contemporary, city-forward branding. Its tall stance and restrained detailing read as disciplined and technical, while the softened corners keep it from feeling harsh.
The font appears designed to deliver a compact, contemporary sans voice with a signature rounded-rectangle construction—pairing efficiency and strong vertical cadence with subtly softened geometry for a distinctive, modern identity.
Across the alphabet and numerals, the design maintains consistent corner rounding and uniform stroke color, producing an orderly texture in text. The narrow counters and compressed widths make it visually strong at display sizes, where the distinctive superelliptical curvature becomes most apparent.
