A tall, tightly set sans with softly rounded terminals and a smooth, even stroke throughout. The proportions are strongly vertical, with narrow letterforms and generous internal counters that keep the shapes open despite the condensed width. Curves are clean and controlled, joins are simple, and the overall rhythm is consistent across upper- and lowercase, producing a neat, streamlined texture in lines of text. Numerals follow the same narrow, rounded construction for a cohesive voice.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, posters, and packaging where a narrow footprint is useful and a clean, friendly tone is desired. It can also work for short UI labels and navigational signage, especially where vertical economy and quick recognition matter more than long-form reading comfort.
The overall tone feels modern and approachable—more friendly than technical—thanks to the rounded endings and gentle curvature. Its condensed verticality adds a sense of efficiency and urban signage character, while the light stroke keeps the color calm and unobtrusive.
The design appears aimed at delivering a space-saving, contemporary sans that stays readable through open forms and rounded finishing. It prioritizes a consistent, streamlined texture and a personable tone for display and short text settings.
Ascenders and capitals read notably tall, and the spacing appears tuned for compact set widths while maintaining clarity. Round letters stay relatively open and oval, and straight strokes remain crisp without sharp corners, reinforcing a soft, contemporary feel.
