A condensed, right-leaning sans with monoline strokes and compact proportions. Curves are built from softly squared, rounded-rectangle shapes, giving bowls and counters a superelliptical feel rather than purely circular forms. Stems are straight and tall, terminals are mostly clean and unadorned, and joins stay crisp, producing a tidy, engineered rhythm. The overall texture is tight and even, with narrow letterforms and consistent stroke behavior across caps, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited to situations that benefit from a tall, space-saving voice: condensed headlines, posters, branding systems, and packaging. It can also work for signage or UI labels where a compact footprint is useful, especially at medium-to-large sizes where its tight structure stays clear.
The font conveys a streamlined, contemporary tone with a slightly industrial edge. Its narrow, slanted stance reads efficient and fast, suggesting modern signage or data-driven interfaces rather than expressive or literary settings.
The design appears intended to deliver a clean, contemporary sans optimized for horizontal economy while maintaining a consistent, rounded-rectangle geometry. The italic slant adds momentum without introducing decorative flourish, keeping the overall impression functional and modern.
Round characters like O, Q, and 0 show flattened sides and rounded corners, reinforcing the squared-curve geometry. Lowercase forms keep a compact, practical construction, and the numerals follow the same condensed logic for cohesive alphanumeric color.
