A condensed, monoline sans with tall proportions and generous vertical rhythm. Strokes stay consistently even, with rounded curves and softly finished terminals that keep the texture smooth rather than rigid. Capitals are narrow and upright, with simple geometric construction; round letters (O, C, G, Q) read as compact ovals with open counters. Lowercase shows a relatively small x-height against notably tall ascenders, and several forms introduce subtle, calligraphic-like joins (notably in m/n) while remaining fundamentally sans and clean. Numerals follow the same narrow, upright stance, maintaining a light, uncluttered presence in text.
Well-suited for space-saving headlines, posters, and titling where a tall, narrow voice helps fit more characters per line. Its friendly geometry also works for branding and packaging that want a clean look with a touch of personality, and for short-to-medium text where an airy, condensed texture is desirable.
The overall tone is light and approachable, with a mild retro flavor driven by the tall, condensed silhouettes and rounded geometry. It feels neat and modern at a glance, but the softened details add friendliness and a slightly whimsical character in longer lines.
Likely designed to provide a compact, vertically oriented sans that stays legible and visually calm while adding subtle warmth through rounded construction and gently expressive lowercase forms.
The condensed width creates a vertical emphasis and a steady, even color in paragraphs, while the small x-height makes the lowercase feel delicate and a bit more display-leaning than utilitarian. Curves are smooth and consistent, and the punctuation-like details (dots, small joins) read crisply due to the simple stroke model.
