A condensed sans with tall, compact proportions and a monolinear stroke. Curves are built from softly squared, superellipse-like rounds rather than perfect circles, giving bowls and counters a subtly rectangular feel. Terminals are clean and mostly straight, with gentle rounding at corners; curves transition smoothly with minimal modulation. The lowercase shows single-storey forms where applicable (notably the g) and generally tight apertures, while figures are narrow and vertically aligned for a consistent, economical texture.
Well suited to headlines, subheads, and display typography where horizontal space is limited but a crisp, contemporary look is desired. It also works for signage, packaging, and UI labels that benefit from a compact footprint and steady, uniform stroke.
The overall tone is modern and pragmatic, with a space-saving, utility-first presence. Its softly squared rounding adds a restrained friendliness without reading casual, keeping the voice controlled and contemporary. The condensed rhythm also lends an assertive, editorial edge suited to headlines and tightly set information.
Likely designed to deliver a modern condensed voice with a distinctive superellipse geometry, maximizing information density while keeping forms smooth and orderly. The goal appears to be a clean, contemporary sans that feels slightly engineered through its rounded-rectangle construction.
At text sizes the narrow set and closed apertures create a dense typographic color, emphasizing verticality and efficiency. The superellipse construction is especially noticeable in rounded letters like O, Q, and e, which feel more architectural than geometric, helping the design maintain consistency across straight and curved forms.
