A condensed sans with compact proportions and a tall, economical rhythm. Strokes read largely uniform with subtle modulation, and curves are built from rounded-rectangle/superellipse-like forms that keep counters smooth and controlled. Terminals are clean and mostly flat, producing a crisp silhouette, while bowls and shoulders stay tight, yielding relatively closed apertures in letters like C, S, and e. Spacing appears restrained and consistent, supporting dense settings and vertical emphasis without feeling fragile.
Well-suited to headlines and subheads where space is limited and a compact, vertical presence is desirable. It can work effectively in posters, packaging, and signage/wayfinding systems that benefit from a clean, condensed sans with consistent rhythm. The matching numerals make it a solid option for labels, dashboards, and other number-heavy applications.
The overall tone is modern and no-nonsense, with a straightforward, engineered feel. Its narrow stance and clean geometry suggest efficiency and clarity rather than warmth or ornament, making it feel practical and contemporary.
The design appears intended to deliver a space-saving sans with a contemporary geometric flavor, prioritizing uniformity, clarity, and a controlled texture. Its rounded-rectilinear construction and restrained detailing suggest a focus on functional typography for modern branding and information-forward layouts.
Uppercase forms are tall and compact, and the lowercase maintains a steady, workmanlike texture at text sizes. Numerals match the same condensed, controlled geometry, keeping figures visually aligned with the letterforms for mixed alphanumeric use.
