A slim, monolinear sans with subtly rounded corners and a softly squared (superelliptic) approach to curves, especially in bowls and counters. Proportions are condensed with tall capitals and a measured, steady rhythm, while terminals tend to finish cleanly without flaring. Round letters read more like rounded rectangles than perfect circles, and the overall texture stays even thanks to restrained contrast and consistent stroke joins.
Best suited to headlines and short-form typography where its condensed width and clean geometry can create strong vertical presence. It also works well for branding, packaging, and editorial pull quotes that want a contemporary, crafted sans with a distinctive superelliptic flavor.
The font feels modern and composed, balancing a technical clarity with a quiet sophistication. Its condensed stance and softened geometry give it a contemporary, editorial tone that can read refined rather than stark.
The design appears intended to merge a condensed, space-efficient structure with softened geometric shapes, yielding a controlled, modern voice. It aims for clarity and consistency while adding personality through squared-round curves and disciplined proportions.
Distinctive forms include a double-storey “g,” a high-shouldered “r,” and a single-storey “a,” all drawn with the same squared-round logic. Numerals are similarly narrow and streamlined, with open, straightforward construction that keeps them legible at display sizes.
