A compact, monolinear sans with tall proportions and a tight, economical rhythm. Strokes are even and straightforward, with squared-off terminals softened by subtly rounded corners, producing a superellipse-like geometry in bowls and counters. The uppercase is narrow and vertical, while the lowercase keeps a high x-height and short ascenders/descenders, helping lines of text read dense without feeling cramped. Numerals follow the same restrained construction, with simple, open shapes and consistent stroke behavior.
Well-suited to space-conscious settings such as interface typography, navigation, labels, and captions, where a compact footprint and clear forms are beneficial. It can also serve editorial layouts and contemporary branding that want a tall, streamlined sans with a restrained, systematic presence.
The overall tone is contemporary and pragmatic, with a quiet confidence that feels engineered rather than expressive. Its condensed posture and softened rectangular curves give it a functional, editorial voice—serious, clear, and slightly technical without becoming cold.
The design appears intended to balance density and readability: a condensed, monolinear structure for efficient setting paired with softly squared geometry to keep counters open and forms approachable. The consistent construction suggests a focus on clarity, alignment, and repeatable shapes for dependable everyday typography.
Round letters (like O/C/G) read more like rounded rectangles than perfect circles, and many joins and shoulders are kept crisp, reinforcing a structured, architectural feel. Spacing appears tuned for compact setting, supporting solid word shapes in longer text samples.
