A tall, condensed sans with a monoline stroke and softly rounded terminals. Curves are drawn with gentle, slightly irregular tension, giving bowls and counters an open, oval feel. Letterforms are narrow with long ascenders and descenders, and the overall rhythm is vertical and airy, with modest apertures and clean, unembellished joins.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings where a tall, space-saving word shape is helpful—headlines, posters, packaging, and brand marks that want a friendly retro flavor. It can work for subheads and pull quotes at comfortable sizes, but its narrow structure and airy rhythm make it more effective as a display face than for dense long-form copy.
The font reads as friendly and slightly whimsical, with a hint of vintage poster and mid-century display character. Its narrow proportions and rounded detailing create a light, approachable tone rather than a strict, engineered one.
The design appears intended to provide a compact, vertically oriented sans that feels approachable and characterful, combining clean monoline construction with softened curves for a retro-leaning display voice.
The condensed build creates strong vertical emphasis in text, while the rounded curves keep it from feeling stark. Numerals share the same tall, narrow construction and maintain consistent stroke weight alongside the letters.
