A tall, condensed sans with an extremely fine, monoline stroke and generous counters. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle/superellipse-like geometry, giving bowls and arches a softly squared roundness rather than purely circular forms. Uppercase proportions are narrow with simple, open apertures; diagonals (A, V, W, X, Y) are crisp and straight, while rounds (O, Q, C, G) stay smooth and controlled. The lowercase maintains a modest x-height with slim stems, short crossbars, and clean, uncluttered joins; numerals follow the same narrow, linear construction for a consistent texture in mixed settings.
Best suited to headlines, large-scale editorial typography, and brand wordmarks where its tall, delicate construction can stay crisp and intentional. It also works well for packaging, fashion/beauty graphics, and minimalist UI accents, especially when set with ample size and breathing room.
The overall tone is sleek and understated, with a refined “technical” clarity that feels contemporary and design-forward. Its lightness and tall rhythm create an airy, high-end impression, suggesting precision and restraint rather than warmth or exuberance.
The design appears intended to deliver a condensed, high-clarity sans with superellipse-based round forms—balancing strict geometry with softened corners for a polished, contemporary voice.
Spacing appears deliberately open for such a condensed design, helping prevent the thin strokes from clumping in text. Rounded terminals and softly squared curves keep the geometry friendly while remaining sharply minimal, which reads especially well at larger sizes.
