A tall, condensed sans with a light stroke and subtle contrast, drawn with smooth, rounded-rectangle curves that keep bowls and counters clean and open. Proportions are strongly vertical, with narrow widths and compact apertures that create an efficient, column-like rhythm. Stems are straight and even, terminals tend toward clean cuts, and round letters stay softly squared rather than purely circular, giving the design a controlled, geometric feel. Lowercase forms are simple and readable, with a single-storey “g” and restrained joins that avoid ornamental detailing.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, and short-to-medium runs of text where a narrow footprint is useful and a clean, modern voice is desired. It works well for editorial layouts, posters, packaging, and branding systems that benefit from tall proportions and a refined, minimal texture.
The overall tone is contemporary and composed, with an elegant, fashion-adjacent restraint. Its narrow, high-waisted proportions and smooth curves convey a sleek, metropolitan character that feels orderly rather than playful.
The design appears intended to provide a space-saving condensed sans with a polished, geometric softness—balancing strict vertical structure with superellipse-like curves for a contemporary, upscale finish.
The texture is relatively uniform at text sizes, with punctuation and numerals matching the same tall, condensed cadence. Round characters maintain consistent curvature, helping long lines look tidy and aligned, while the light stroke keeps pages feeling open and uncluttered.
