A tall, condensed sans with consistently even strokes and softly rounded terminals. Curves are drawn with narrow, upright ovals, giving letters like O/C/G a slim, elongated profile, while verticals dominate the overall rhythm. Counters stay fairly open despite the tight width, and punctuation is simple and unobtrusive. Numerals follow the same narrow, upright construction, reading clean and aligned with the text color.
It performs best in space-saving settings such as headlines, posters, packaging, and labeling where a condensed voice helps fit more text without feeling heavy. It can also work for UI or informational text when a narrow measure and tidy, uniform stroke are desired, especially at moderate sizes.
The overall tone feels clean and contemporary, with a slightly friendly, approachable character coming from the rounded ends and smooth curves. Its narrow stance lends a purposeful, efficient feel that suits orderly, space-conscious typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a straightforward, legible condensed sans that stays neutral and versatile while retaining a gentle softness through rounded terminals and smooth, elliptical curves.
The font maintains a steady, linear texture in running text, with minimal contrast and a calm baseline presence. Narrow proportions create a compact word shape while still preserving clarity through open apertures and straightforward forms.
