A monoline, condensed sans with tall proportions and rounded-rectangle (superellipse) curves throughout. Strokes are consistently thin and even, with softly radiused terminals and smooth joins that keep counters open despite the narrow width. The overall rhythm is vertical and linear, with generous ascenders and descenders, compact lowercase bodies, and simplified, geometric constructions for both letters and numerals.
Best suited to display settings where its tall, slender structure can breathe: headlines, posters, brand marks, packaging, and boutique signage. It can work for short text passages when set with ample size and tracking, but it reads most confidently when used for titles and prominent typographic moments.
The font conveys a refined, vintage-modern tone reminiscent of streamlined signage and Art Deco-era lettering. Its delicate lines and narrow stance feel poised and airy, giving text a quiet sophistication rather than a bold, utilitarian voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a sleek, geometric display sans that echoes classic Deco proportions while staying minimal and contemporary. Its superelliptical curves and monoline construction prioritize a clean silhouette and a recognizable vertical elegance.
Round characters (like O/0 and C/G) read as rounded rectangles, and several forms lean on straight-sided geometry with softened corners. Capitals present as display-forward due to their height and narrow spacing, while the lowercase’s small body and long extenders create a distinctive, stylized texture in running text.
