A tall, highly condensed sans with monoline strokes and softly squared, superellipse-like curves. Counters and bowls are narrow and vertically oriented, giving the alphabet a streamlined, columnar rhythm. Terminals are clean and largely squared-off, with rounded corners that keep the forms friendly rather than stark. Overall spacing feels tight and efficient, emphasizing verticality and an even, consistent stroke behavior across letters and numerals.
Best suited for headlines, posters, branding, and packaging where a strong vertical presence and compact width help fit long words into limited space. It also works for editorial display use—pull quotes, section titles, and short subheads—where its clean geometry can carry a contemporary voice without needing heavy weight or high contrast.
The tone is modern and disciplined, with a sleek, urban feel. Its narrow proportions and tidy geometry suggest efficiency and precision, while the rounded-rectangle curves add a subtle warmth. The overall impression is contemporary, stylish, and slightly retro in a high-rise, Art-Deco-adjacent way.
The design appears intended to deliver a space-saving, modern display voice built on refined geometric construction. By combining condensed proportions with rounded-rectangle curves and monoline strokes, it aims for a crisp, contemporary look that remains approachable and consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
Round characters like O/Q/0 read as elongated rounded rectangles, and diagonals (K, V, W, X, Y) are crisp and linear against the softer curves of bowls. Numerals follow the same tall, compact logic, maintaining a consistent vertical rhythm that looks coherent in text blocks and headline settings.
