A tall, condensed sans with monoline strokes and generous interior counters. Curves are drawn with rounded-rectangle (superellipse-like) logic, giving bowls and terminals a softly squared, controlled feel rather than purely circular forms. Verticality dominates the rhythm, with narrow letterforms, tight apertures in places, and clean joins that stay crisp at the intersections. The overall texture is even and quiet, with simple, unembellished construction across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
It suits headlines, subheads, and display settings where a sleek, condensed voice is useful for fitting more characters per line without losing clarity. The clean geometry also works well for branding systems, packaging, and contemporary editorial layouts, especially when paired with more neutral text faces for long-form reading.
The font reads as contemporary and understated, with a poised, gallery-like restraint. Its slender proportions and smooth geometry create an elegant, slightly fashion-forward tone that feels calm and precise rather than expressive or playful.
The design appears intended to provide a modern condensed sans that balances strict vertical economy with softened, superelliptic curves, delivering a refined display voice that stays clean and controlled across mixed-case typography and numerals.
In running text the narrow set and tall capitals create a strong vertical cadence and a distinctive, space-efficient line color. The superellipse-based rounding keeps the design from feeling stark, adding a subtle softness while remaining firmly minimalist.
