A monoline sans with condensed proportions and generous vertical reach. Curves are built from smooth, rounded-rectangle geometry, giving bowls and counters a soft, superelliptical feel rather than purely circular forms. Terminals are clean and unadorned, strokes stay consistent, and spacing feels even and measured, producing a crisp, orderly rhythm in both uppercase and lowercase. Figures follow the same narrow, linear logic, with simple shapes and consistent stroke behavior across the set.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, captions, and interface labeling where a light, condensed voice is desirable. It can work well in editorial layouts and brand systems that want a minimal, modern tone, especially when set with ample leading and careful contrast against the background.
The overall tone is restrained and contemporary, reading as quiet, efficient, and design-forward. Its thin, open construction feels refined and technical, with a light touch that suggests clarity and precision rather than warmth or exuberance.
Likely designed to provide a sleek, space-efficient sans that feels modern and controlled, combining condensed proportions with softened superelliptical curves. The emphasis appears to be on clean legibility and an understated, contemporary aesthetic for display and short-to-medium text settings.
The design leans on verticals and gently rounded corners to create a sleek silhouette at display sizes. The narrow set width and open apertures help maintain distinct letterforms, while the consistent monoline treatment keeps the texture uniform across longer passages.
