A tall, condensed sans with a strong vertical rhythm and rounded-rectangle (superelliptical) construction throughout. Strokes are mostly uniform and clean, with crisp terminals and compact curves that read as softly squared rather than purely circular. Counters are narrow and controlled, and many forms emphasize straight sides with rounded corners, giving letters like O, D, and U a sleek, columnar silhouette. The lowercase maintains a relatively large x-height with simplified, single-storey shapes and a restrained, consistent punctuation style, resulting in a tidy, streamlined texture in text.
Best suited to headlines, poster typography, brand marks, and packaging where tall, condensed letterforms can create a strong, stylish silhouette. It can also work for short editorial pulls, captions, or UI labels when a narrow footprint and a refined, geometric voice are needed, though its compact counters favor moderate sizes over very small text.
The overall tone feels refined and display-minded, blending modern minimalism with a subtle Art Deco sensibility. Its tall proportions and rounded-rectangular geometry suggest boutique signage, fashion/editorial styling, and contemporary branding that wants a cool, composed presence.
Likely designed to deliver a distinctive condensed sans built from rounded-rectangle geometry, prioritizing a modern, decorative presence and a consistent vertical rhythm. The simplified forms and disciplined curves point toward clarity in display settings while retaining a fashionable, retro-leaning character.
The design’s superelliptical curves and narrow apertures create a distinctive, uniform “tube-like” feel across the alphabet, while the numerals follow the same condensed, rounded architecture for cohesive titling and numbering. Spacing appears set to preserve a clean vertical cadence, supporting tightly set headlines where a sleek, high-rise look is desired.
