A condensed monoline sans with tall proportions and a distinctly geometric construction. Curves are drawn as rounded-rectangle/superellipse-like bowls with tight, even radii, while verticals dominate and horizontals are short and restrained. Terminals are clean and mostly squared-off with softened corners, producing a crisp, engineered rhythm. Counters are narrow and apertures tend toward closed or narrowly open forms, giving the type a refined, economical texture in lines of text.
Best suited to display contexts where its tall, condensed profile can create a distinctive columnar rhythm—headlines, posters, brand marks, packaging, and wayfinding-style signage. It also works well for short UI labels or product naming when set with comfortable tracking and sufficient size to preserve its delicate strokes.
The overall tone is cool, modern, and technical, with a light, airy presence that reads as sleek rather than friendly. Its narrow, elongated silhouettes evoke Art Deco and sci‑fi titling sensibilities, projecting precision and restraint. The rounded geometry keeps it from feeling harsh, adding a subtle softness to an otherwise architectural voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a sleek, space-efficient sans with a strong vertical cadence and a geometric, rounded-rectangle vocabulary. It prioritizes a clean, contemporary look that feels engineered and stylized for modern display typography rather than neutral body text.
Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent vertical emphasis, and ascenders/descenders are prominent in the running text, creating a pronounced vertical rhythm. The figures follow the same rounded-rectilinear logic, making numerals feel cohesive with the alphabet. At smaller sizes the thin strokes and narrow counters may call for generous spacing and ample contrast to the background.
