A monoline, condensed sans with tall proportions and rounded-rectangle construction in its curves. Strokes are extremely thin and consistent, with generous interior counters and long verticals that dominate the texture. Terminals are clean and largely unmodulated, and many forms favor softly squared rounding over circular bowls, giving the alphabet a streamlined, superelliptic rhythm. Spacing reads open for the width, helping prevent the hairline strokes from collapsing when set in words.
Best suited for headlines, short display lines, branding wordmarks, and posters where its hairline structure and condensed width can read as stylish and intentional. It can also work for packaging or UI titling when used at larger sizes with ample tracking, where the delicate strokes and narrow forms remain clear.
The overall tone is sleek and understated, with a cool, modern refinement. Its thin lines and elongated silhouettes suggest a futuristic, editorial sensibility—more about atmosphere and precision than warmth or weight.
The design appears intended to deliver a refined, space-saving display voice built from simplified, rounded-rectilinear geometry. It emphasizes vertical elegance and a contemporary, minimal aesthetic while maintaining consistent letterform logic across cases and numerals.
The numerals and lowercase echo the same tall, rounded-rectangle logic, producing a consistent, vertical cadence across mixed text. The design feels most confident where repeated vertical strokes and smooth corners create a clean, sign-like continuity.
