A tall, condensed monoline sans with softly squared, superelliptical curves and a consistently slender stroke. Uppercase forms are narrow and vertically emphasized, with rounded-rectangle bowls and smooth joins; diagonals stay crisp while terminals remain clean and largely unadorned. Lowercase keeps a very small x-height relative to ascenders, producing long verticals on b/d/h/k/l and deep descenders on g/j/p/q/y; curves in o/c/e feel gently squared rather than purely circular. Numerals follow the same narrow, upright construction, with open, simplified shapes and rounded corners that maintain an even texture across lines of text.
This face is best suited to display settings where its tall, narrow rhythm can create elegant vertical emphasis—headlines, posters, mastheads, and brand wordmarks. It can also work for short editorial callouts or packaging copy when set with comfortable size and generous leading to preserve its airy texture.
The overall tone is quiet and refined, with an airy, minimalist presence that feels contemporary and slightly stylized. Its tall proportions and softened geometry suggest a designed, gallery-like restraint rather than utilitarian neutrality.
The design appears intended to combine condensed, space-saving proportions with a soft, geometric skeleton, producing a distinctive modern voice that stays clean and restrained. The very small x-height and elongated ascenders/descenders emphasize a sophisticated, high-fashion or architectural sensibility in display typography.
Spacing reads on the open side, which enhances the light color and keeps counters from clogging despite the condensed widths. The superelliptical rounding gives the face a distinctive, systematized geometry that remains consistent across capitals, lowercase, and figures.
