A condensed monoline sans with tall proportions and consistently thin strokes. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle/superellipse shapes, giving bowls and counters a softly squared roundness rather than true circles. Terminals are clean and unembellished, with smooth joins and restrained punctuation-like detailing within letters (e.g., compact crossbars and short arms). The overall rhythm is vertical and continuous, with generous internal whitespace and a crisp, linear texture in words.
Best suited to headlines, titling, and short lines where its tall, slim presence can set a distinctive mood. It can work well for branding systems and packaging that want a clean, upscale feel, and for editorial display typography where space is tight but a refined voice is needed.
The tone is sleek and poised, leaning toward modern editorial elegance and minimalist design. Its narrow, towering silhouette reads as fashion-forward and slightly architectural, producing an airy sophistication rather than a utilitarian voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, space-saving display sans that stays elegant through very thin, consistent strokes and superellipse-based rounding. Its emphasis on vertical proportion and minimal detailing suggests a focus on stylish titles and brand marks rather than heavy, long-form texture.
In text, the condensed width and high verticality create a strong columnar flow, which can look striking at display sizes but may feel delicate in dense settings. Numerals share the same tall, streamlined construction, matching the alphabet’s quiet, refined character.
