A tall, tightly set sans with a strongly condensed stance and even stroke weight. Curves resolve into rounded-rectangle (superellipse-like) bowls and counters, giving letters a squarish softness rather than purely circular geometry. Terminals are generally flat and clean, with compact apertures and a consistent, vertical rhythm; punctuation and figures follow the same narrow, streamlined proportions.
This font is well suited to headlines and display settings where vertical emphasis and economy of space are desirable, such as posters, editorial titling, and packaging. Its narrow footprint also fits signage and UI labels where many characters must fit in limited width while maintaining a clean, contemporary look.
The overall tone feels modern and pragmatic, with a disciplined, engineered cadence. Its narrow proportions and rounded-rectangular forms suggest a contemporary, space-efficient voice that can read as both technical and stylish.
The design appears intended to deliver a condensed, highly regular texture with geometric, rounded-rectangle forms that remain crisp and legible at display sizes. It prioritizes consistent rhythm, compact width, and a contemporary sans presence over expressive calligraphic detail.
The uppercase shows high, straight-sided construction with minimal modulation, while the lowercase maintains a compact, upright texture that keeps lines looking dense and orderly. Numerals echo the same condensed framework, supporting a cohesive typographic color in continuous text.
