A condensed, monoline sans with extreme vertical emphasis and compact horizontal proportions. Strokes are consistently thin with rounded terminals and softly squared, superellipse-like curves in bowls and counters. The design keeps a steady rhythm through tall ascenders/descenders and narrow apertures, while subtle width changes across letters (especially in diagonals and multi-stem forms) add a slightly irregular, hand-drawn-in-a-system feel. Figures and capitals maintain the same tall, compressed posture, producing a distinctly linear texture in text.
Best suited for display settings where its condensed verticality becomes a graphic feature—posters, headlines, logotypes, packaging, and editorial pulls. It can work for short bursts of text, but the tight proportions and narrow counters make it most effective at larger sizes or with generous tracking.
The overall tone is airy and minimalist, with a refined, almost poster-like elegance. Its tall, skinny silhouette and rounded geometry also evoke a playful retro sensibility—equal parts stylish and a bit quirky—suited to designs that want to feel distinctive without becoming ornate.
The font appears designed to deliver a highly distinctive condensed voice using simple, consistent strokes and rounded-rectangle construction. Its intent seems to balance clean modern geometry with a slightly idiosyncratic rhythm, prioritizing personality and vertical presence in display typography.
Round forms read as rounded-rectangle constructions rather than circles, giving O/C/G and the numerals a softly mechanical character. The narrow counters and long vertical strokes create a strong, striped color in paragraphs, and the punctuation/dots appear small and understated relative to the letter height.
