A tall, condensed sans with consistent, lightly modulated strokes and a clear vertical emphasis. Curves tend toward smooth, rounded-rectangle geometry, giving bowls and counters a softly squared feel rather than fully circular shapes. Terminals are clean and simple, with open apertures and restrained joins that keep the texture even in long lines. The overall rhythm is narrow and upright, with generous internal space for its width and crisp, uncluttered forms across letters and numerals.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, and display settings where a compact footprint and strong vertical presence are helpful. It works well for editorial titling, modern brand wordmarks, packaging, and poster typography, especially where a clean, contemporary tone is desired and tighter columns or limited horizontal space are constraints.
The font conveys a sleek, contemporary calm—precise and understated, with a slightly architectural feel. Its narrow, airy texture reads as sophisticated and editorial, leaning more toward modern refinement than warmth or playfulness.
Likely designed to provide a contemporary condensed sans that stays neutral and legible while introducing a distinctive rounded-rectangle geometry. The intention appears to balance efficiency and clarity with a refined, modern display character that remains consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
In the samples, the condensed proportions create strong verticality and efficient line length, while the rounded-rectilinear curves add a subtle softness to an otherwise strict construction. Numerals follow the same tall, simplified logic, maintaining a consistent color with the alphabetic forms.
