A condensed monoline sans with tall proportions and a disciplined, rectilinear geometry softened by rounded-rectangle (superellipse-like) curves. Strokes are consistently thin with minimal modulation, and terminals tend to be clean and squared-off with subtle rounding. Counters are narrow and vertically oriented, giving the type a high, streamlined rhythm; round letters like O and Q read as upright rounded rectangles, while C and G keep open, clipped apertures. Numerals follow the same tall, condensed structure with simple, legible forms and restrained detailing.
Best suited to headlines and compact display settings where height and economy of width are advantages, such as posters, signage, packaging, and brand wordmarks. It can also work for UI labels and navigational text when space is tight, provided sizes are large enough to preserve the thin strokes.
The overall tone is modern and understated, leaning toward a technical, architectural feel. Its narrow stance and tidy curves convey efficiency and precision, while the softened corners keep it from feeling harsh or overly mechanical.
The design appears intended to deliver a space-saving condensed voice with a contemporary, geometric backbone, using rounded-rectangle construction to create a recognizable, refined character without ornament.
In text, the font maintains an even color and steady spacing, with strong vertical emphasis that makes lines feel tall and airy. The combination of narrow counters and rounded-rectangular bowls produces a distinctive silhouette that stands out in headings while remaining controlled and orderly.
