A highly condensed, monoline sans with an emphatically vertical rhythm. Strokes are consistently thin with little to no contrast, and terminals tend toward clean cuts with subtly rounded corners. Curves and bowls feel constructed from narrow rounded-rectangle (superellipse-like) shapes, producing compact counters and a streamlined silhouette. Spacing is tight and the forms are optimized for height, giving the alphabet a tall, columnar texture in both uppercase and lowercase.
Best suited to display settings where vertical emphasis and space-saving width are desirable, such as headlines, posters, and packaging. It can also work for UI labels, navigation, and data-dense layouts when used at sufficiently large sizes and with comfortable tracking to preserve clarity.
The overall tone is spare and engineered, with a contemporary, almost schematic presence. Its extreme narrowness and uniform stroke lend it a controlled, efficient voice that reads as modern and slightly retro-futurist rather than expressive or casual.
The design appears intended to deliver a condensed, space-efficient sans with a geometric, rounded-rectangle construction and consistent stroke behavior. It prioritizes a tall, compact texture and a clean modern presence that stays visually uniform across letters and numerals.
Round letters (such as O/C/G and their lowercase counterparts) appear as slender vertical ovals with small apertures and restrained joins, reinforcing the font’s compressed geometry. Diagonals (V/W/X/Y) are similarly tightened and steep, keeping widths contained and maintaining an even, upright cadence across lines. Numerals follow the same narrow, linear construction, matching the typeface’s compact texture.
