A tall, tightly set sans with a pronounced vertical emphasis and compact letterforms. Strokes are largely straight and parallel, while curves are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, producing squared-off bowls and softly radiused corners. Contrast appears in how horizontals and joins feel lighter against dominant vertical stems, giving a crisp, engineered rhythm. Apertures are fairly open for the width, terminals are clean and blunt, and punctuation and numerals follow the same narrow, upright construction.
Best suited to display settings such as headlines, posters, mastheads, and brand marks where condensed typography helps fit more characters per line. It also works well for packaging, signage, and editorial callouts that benefit from a sleek, controlled voice and a strong vertical rhythm.
The overall tone is contemporary and streamlined, balancing a utilitarian, technical clarity with a refined, fashion-forward sharpness. Its narrow proportions and rounded-rectilinear curves suggest an urban, architectural sensibility rather than a casual or friendly voice.
This design appears intended to deliver maximum economy of space while staying highly legible and visually consistent. The rounded-rectangle construction modernizes the condensed genre, aiming for a precise, contemporary look that remains approachable through softened corners.
Round letters like O/Q and bowls in B/D/P read as superelliptic—more squared than circular—while maintaining smooth curvature. The lowercase includes simple, compact forms with single-storey shapes (notably a and g), reinforcing a clean, modern texture. Numerals are similarly narrow and structured, suited to tight layouts where alignment and rhythm matter.
