A tall, condensed sans with very thin strokes and gently rounded, superelliptical shaping throughout. Curves resolve into rounded-rectangle bowls and soft corners rather than perfect circles, giving letters like O, D, and U a sleek, squared-off roundness. Strokes read largely monolinear with subtle modulation, and terminals are clean and minimal, supporting an even, vertical rhythm. The lowercase is simple and legible with compact shoulders and open apertures, while figures are similarly narrow and consistent in width and alignment.
Works well for headlines, subheads, captions, and short editorial passages where a slender, refined texture is desired. It’s also a good fit for fashion and lifestyle branding, premium packaging, and UI labeling or navigation where a clean, space-efficient voice is needed.
The overall tone is quiet and contemporary—clean, airy, and slightly technical. Its tall proportions and restrained detailing suggest precision and elegance without feeling cold, making it well suited to modern, design-forward settings.
The design appears intended to deliver a minimal, condensed sans with a recognizable superelliptical geometry—combining modern elegance with a crisp, engineered rhythm for contemporary branding and display typography.
Because of its extremely light weight and condensed build, the face reads best when given breathing room; tight spacing or small sizes may reduce clarity. The superelliptical geometry creates a distinctive, polished texture in lines of text, with a strong vertical cadence.
