A tall, tightly set sans with a monoline skeleton and softly rounded corners throughout. Curves tend toward rounded-rectangle geometry, giving bowls and counters a squared-off smoothness rather than pure circles. Strokes stay even with minimal modulation, while terminals are generally flat and blunt. The overall rhythm is vertical and economical, with compact sidebearings and consistent, simplified shapes across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, posters, and packaging where a condensed, high-impact voice helps fit more characters into limited width. It can also work for branding and signage systems that need a consistent, streamlined look, especially in short to medium text blocks where its vertical rhythm remains crisp.
The tone is modern and no-nonsense, with an urban, utilitarian polish. Its narrow, upright stance reads efficient and structured, while the rounded-rect forms keep it approachable rather than clinical. The result feels contemporary and editorial—designed to be noticed without becoming decorative.
The design appears intended to deliver a space-saving sans with a distinctive superellipse flavor—combining condensed proportions with rounded-rectangle geometry for a recognizable, contemporary texture. It prioritizes clarity and consistency, aiming for efficient communication with a subtle stylistic signature.
Distinctive condensed caps and tall ascenders/descenders create a strong vertical texture in text. Round letters like O/Q and bowls in B/P/R show the signature softened-square construction, and the numerals follow the same condensed, straight-sided logic for a cohesive voice.
