A condensed monoline sans with tall proportions and rounded-rectangle construction throughout. Curves resolve into soft corners rather than true circles, giving counters and bowls a squarish, superelliptical feel. Strokes stay even with rounded terminals, and many joins are simplified, producing a clean, schematic rhythm. The overall texture is airy and vertical, with compact letter widths, narrow apertures, and deliberately stylized capitals and numerals that emphasize height and clarity over traditional proportions.
Best suited to display settings where its tall, condensed silhouette can add character without needing heavy weight—posters, headers, identity systems, packaging, and wayfinding. It can work for short UI labels or navigation when space is tight, but its stylization is most effective in titles and prominent typographic moments.
The font reads as retro-futuristic and lightly whimsical, like mid-century display lettering filtered through a minimal, modern geometry. Its narrow, tall stance feels efficient and technical, while the softened corners keep it friendly and approachable.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, space-saving sans with a distinctive superelliptical geometry—balancing a technical, structured feel with rounded terminals for friendliness. It prioritizes a recognizable, branded look over neutrality, aiming to stand out in display and identity contexts.
Capitals and lowercase share a consistent rounded-rectangle logic, and the punctuation and figures carry the same softened, linear treatment. In running text, the condensed spacing and distinctive shapes create a strong voice that becomes more pronounced at larger sizes.
