A condensed sans with tall proportions and a consistent, monoline stroke. Curves are smooth and rounded, with oval and superellipse-like bowls that stay restrained rather than fully circular. Terminals are clean and mostly straight-cut, creating a crisp vertical rhythm, while counters remain open enough to keep the narrow width readable. Numerals follow the same slim, upright construction with simple, tidy forms.
Best suited to headlines, titling, and short-to-medium text where horizontal space is limited. It works well in branding systems, packaging, and editorial display settings that benefit from a tall, refined texture. The narrow set can also be effective for signage and wayfinding when used at sufficiently large sizes.
The overall tone is modern and streamlined, with a calm, understated presence. Its narrow, tall silhouette feels space-efficient and slightly architectural, projecting clarity and restraint rather than warmth or playfulness.
The font appears designed to deliver a space-saving, contemporary sans voice with softened geometric construction. Its goal seems to be creating a clear, stylish condensed texture that remains orderly and legible in display use.
The design relies on strong vertical stems and compact bowls, producing an even texture in lines of text. Rounded corners soften the strict geometry, helping the condensed structure feel less rigid while staying clean and contemporary.
