A tall, condensed sans with an extremely fine, monoline stroke and softly rounded corners. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle/superellipse geometry, giving bowls and counters an elongated, gently squared feel rather than purely circular forms. Terminals are clean and mostly straight, with a consistent vertical rhythm and narrow apertures that keep the texture light and open. Figures follow the same narrow, rounded construction, producing a cohesive, streamlined set.
Best suited to display settings where its thin strokes and condensed proportions can create a sophisticated, high-end look—such as headlines, brand wordmarks, packaging, and editorial titling. It can also work for UI labels and wayfinding in larger sizes where the airy texture and narrow width help conserve space without feeling heavy.
The overall tone is quiet and understated, with a sleek, contemporary feel. Its hairline presence and elongated proportions read as elegant and slightly technical, suggesting precision and restraint rather than warmth or exuberance.
The font appears designed to deliver a minimalist, space-efficient sans with a distinctive superelliptical skeleton. It prioritizes a clean, contemporary silhouette and a refined, lightweight presence for modern display typography.
The design relies on vertical emphasis and simplified joins, so the font’s character comes more from proportion and contour than from stroke modulation. The rounded-rectangle logic is especially evident in closed forms, which appear squared-off at the extremes while remaining smooth and continuous.
