A condensed sans with rounded-rectangle (superellipse) construction and softly squared curves throughout. Strokes are essentially monoline, with slightly irregular edge texture that reads as hand-inked or stamped rather than mechanically perfect. Counters are compact and vertical, terminals are blunt and rounded, and the overall rhythm is tight with tall, narrow proportions and modest spacing. The digit set matches the same narrow, rounded geometry, keeping a consistent, unified color in text.
Best suited for headlines, packaging, labels, and short bursts of text where its condensed width and handmade texture add character. It can work for branding and logotype-style wordmarks, especially when a friendly, vintage-leaning voice is desired, and is most comfortable at display or large UI sizes rather than dense body copy.
The texture and slightly uneven outlines give the face a human, approachable tone. Its narrow, tall shapes and rounded corners lend a mid-century poster and label feel—friendly and a bit quirky—without turning into overt novelty.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, space-saving sans with a warm, handcrafted finish. By combining superellipse-like structure with subtly roughened outlines, it aims to balance clarity with personality for contemporary-retro display typography.
Round letters (like O, Q, and C) appear as vertically stretched rounded rectangles, while joins and corners stay soft rather than sharp. The font maintains clear silhouettes at display sizes, though the condensed forms and compact counters suggest careful sizing for longer passages.
