A tall, tightly condensed sans with consistently thin, even strokes and a strong vertical rhythm. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle/superellipse-like bowls, giving letters a squared-off softness rather than true circular forms. Terminals are clean and lightly rounded, with simple join logic and little to no modulation at curves. Counters are narrow but clear, and overall spacing feels measured and regular, producing a neat, columnar texture in text.
Works well where horizontal space is limited but a crisp, modern voice is needed—such as UI labels, navigation, small banners, and compact information design. It also suits posters, editorial headings, and packaging that benefit from a tall, condensed texture and a clean geometric feel.
The tone is restrained and contemporary, with a utilitarian clarity that reads as technical and systematic. Rounded corners keep the condensed proportions from feeling harsh, adding a mild softness while remaining decidedly modern and minimal.
The design appears intended to provide a space-saving, contemporary sans with consistent stroke economy and a softened geometric construction. Its superellipse-derived rounding suggests a deliberate balance between strict, engineered structure and approachable smoothness for display and interface-oriented typography.
Uppercase forms emphasize straight-sided geometry (notably in rounded letters like C/O/D), and the numerals follow the same condensed, rounded-rectangle construction. The overall impression is a streamlined alphabet designed to stay legible while occupying minimal horizontal space.
