A condensed, monoline sans with rounded bowls and soft, slightly pinched terminals. Strokes stay even with minimal contrast, while curves are gently squashed into tall ovals that keep counters open despite the narrow proportions. Edges feel subtly irregular—more like drawn shapes than rigid geometry—giving the letterforms a lively rhythm. The lowercase is compact and readable, with simple single-storey forms and a light, buoyant baseline presence.
This face works best where a tall, space-saving voice is useful without feeling technical: short headlines, posters, packaging callouts, and brand accents. It can also suit signage or menu-style applications where condensed widths help fit more characters while maintaining friendly legibility.
The overall tone is approachable and playful, with a mild retro flavor. Its narrow, rounded construction and gently imperfect outlines suggest an informal, human touch rather than a strict corporate voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact sans that stays warm and characterful. By combining narrow proportions with rounded forms and slight irregularity, it aims to feel personable and retro-leaning while remaining straightforward and readable.
Capitals are tall and economical, with rounded corners that prevent the condensed build from feeling sharp. Numerals follow the same narrow, rounded logic, producing a cohesive, signage-like texture in running text.
