A compact, condensed sans with a monolinear stroke and softly rounded joins that keep the texture smooth and even. Proportions are tall and narrow, with relatively large lowercase relative to capitals, producing a dense but legible rhythm in text. Curves are clean and restrained (notably in C, G, O, and S), while vertical strokes dominate the overall silhouette; terminals tend to end squarely or with subtle rounding rather than sharp flair. Numerals are straightforward and utilitarian, matching the same narrow set width and consistent stroke behavior as the letters.
Well-suited to interfaces, dashboards, captions, and other space-constrained settings where a condensed footprint helps fit more text without resorting to extreme weight. It also works effectively for editorial sidebars, packaging copy, and posters that need a clean, modern sans with a controlled, even texture.
The overall tone is neutral and contemporary, leaning toward functional clarity rather than expressive personality. Its condensed build and steady strokes give it an efficient, pragmatic feel that reads as modern and slightly technical.
The font appears designed to maximize economy and clarity: tall, condensed proportions paired with low-contrast, consistent strokes for stable performance at a range of sizes. Its simplified, contemporary forms suggest an aim for versatile everyday typography that stays unobtrusive while remaining highly legible.
The design maintains consistent widths and spacing across the set, creating an even gray value in paragraphs. Distinctive, simple forms—such as a compact single-story a and g, and a narrow, airy e—support readability while keeping the voice understated.
