A monoline, condensed sans with tall proportions and rounded-rectangle (superellipse-like) bowls. Strokes stay consistently thin throughout, with smooth curved corners and minimal modulation, creating an airy, linear texture. Uppercase forms are especially vertical and streamlined, while lowercase shows a very small x-height with long ascenders and descenders that add pronounced vertical rhythm. Counters are narrow and clean, terminals are crisp and unembellished, and overall spacing reads as tight and columnar in text.
Best suited to display settings where its thin strokes and condensed proportions can read as intentional style—headlines, logotypes, packaging, menus, invitations, and fashion or lifestyle editorial. It can also work for short subheads or captions when set with generous size and tracking.
The design conveys a refined Art Deco sensibility: poised, sleek, and slightly theatrical. Its delicate linework and elongated forms feel upscale and boutique, evoking vintage signage and editorial display typography rather than everyday utilitarian text.
The font appears designed to capture a streamlined, geometric elegance with superelliptical curves and a tall, narrow stance. Its emphasis on verticality, delicate monoline construction, and minimal detailing suggests an intention to provide a distinctive Deco-inspired voice for modern display typography.
Distinctive superelliptical rounds give letters like O, Q, and numerals a capsule-like silhouette, reinforcing a coherent geometric theme. The lowercase leans toward display behavior due to its tiny x-height and prominent extenders, and the all-caps sample reads especially clean and architectural.
