A condensed sans with tall proportions, open counters, and gently rounded geometry. Strokes maintain a consistent thickness throughout, with subtle softening at terminals that keeps the texture from feeling mechanical. Curves are smooth and slightly oval, while verticals dominate, giving the alphabet a slim, elongated silhouette. Spacing is compact but even, producing a light, orderly rhythm in both the grid and the text sample.
Well suited to space-saving headlines and subheads where a tall, narrow texture is useful, such as posters, packaging panels, labels, and brand wordmarks. It can also work for short UI labels or signage when a clean, friendly condensed look is desired, though its slim build favors larger sizes over long, dense paragraphs.
The overall tone feels approachable and lightly playful—more personable than strict, with a hint of retro sign and editorial flavor. Its narrow, tall stance reads neat and economical, while the rounded forms add warmth and a casual friendliness.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, modern sans voice with softened geometry—combining efficient width with an approachable, slightly retro character for display-forward typography.
Uppercase forms are clean and simple with minimal ornamentation, while lowercase shapes keep a straightforward, legible construction; the single-storey forms and open apertures contribute to clarity at display sizes. Numerals match the same tall, condensed logic, maintaining a consistent vertical emphasis across mixed text.
