A tall, condensed sans with a spare, linear construction and subtly rounded geometry. Strokes are consistently thin with gentle contrast and smooth joins, producing an even vertical rhythm. Curves (C, G, O, Q) read as rounded-rectangular rather than purely circular, while straight-sided letters (E, F, H, N) keep a crisp, architectural feel. Terminals are clean and unadorned, counters are relatively open for the width, and spacing is restrained, reinforcing a narrow, columnar texture in text.
Best suited to display settings such as headlines, subheads, posters, and brand marks where a narrow footprint and elegant presence are desirable. It also works well for packaging or editorial typography when used at larger sizes or with generous leading to preserve its airy, refined texture.
The overall tone feels poised and slightly vintage, like mid-century display lettering translated into a modern, minimalist sans. Its slender proportions and controlled shapes convey sophistication and calm, with a quiet theatricality that suits high-contrast layouts and refined branding.
The design appears intended to deliver a space-saving, high-style sans for display typography, combining clean modern construction with softly rounded forms to keep the look approachable rather than rigid.
In the sample text, the face maintains a consistent vertical cadence and a distinctive narrow silhouette that stands out in headlines. Numerals follow the same tall, condensed logic, with clear differentiation between forms and minimal ornamentation.
