This typeface is a condensed, monoline sans with tall proportions and a consistent, even stroke. Curves and bowls resolve into rounded-rectangle (superellipse-like) shapes, giving O/C/G and the lowercase rounds a subtly squared-off softness rather than a pure circle. Terminals are clean and straight, apertures are relatively tight, and counters are compact, producing a crisp vertical rhythm. The lowercase shows simple, single-storey forms (notably a and g), with restrained shoulders and a high, efficient x-height that keeps word shapes legible at small sizes despite the narrow set.
It performs best in display sizes where its tall, condensed rhythm can create strong vertical emphasis—headlines, subheads, posters, and brand wordmarks. The clean texture also suits packaging and interface headers where space is limited and a refined, modern voice is desired.
The overall tone is modern and understated, with an elegant, editorial calm. Its condensed verticality feels economical and architectural, while the softened geometry adds a refined friendliness rather than a stark technical feel.
The design appears intended to deliver a space-saving condensed sans with a distinctive superellipse geometry—balancing strict vertical economy with softened corners for a polished, contemporary look.
Numerals follow the same tall, streamlined construction and read cleanly in running text, with simple curves and minimal ornament. The ampersand and punctuation match the font’s spare, monoline logic, reinforcing a consistent, contemporary texture across mixed content.
