A tall, condensed italic sans with monoline strokes and softly squared, rounded-corner construction. Curves tend toward superelliptical shapes, giving bowls and counters a rounded-rectangle feel rather than purely circular geometry. Terminals are clean and slightly softened, with minimal contrast and a steady rhythm that emphasizes verticality. Capitals are narrow and upright in structure but consistently slanted, while lowercase keeps a straightforward, legible skeleton with compact apertures and tight overall proportions. Numerals follow the same narrow, monoline logic, maintaining an even texture in running text.
Well-suited to short-to-medium headlines where a condensed italic can save space while keeping a distinctive voice. It should work especially well for posters, storefront or wayfinding-style signage, packaging, and brand wordmarks that benefit from a streamlined, slightly retro cadence. In text, it reads best at comfortable sizes where the narrow forms and tight counters have room to breathe.
The overall tone feels streamlined and lightly retro, with a modern, understated friendliness from the softened corners and even stroke weight. The italic slant adds motion and informality, lending the face an energetic, signage-like character without becoming decorative.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, fast-moving sans voice with softened geometry—combining a space-efficient condensed build with rounded-rectangle forms for a friendly, contemporary-retro look.
The condensed width and persistent slant create a strong forward-leaning flow, making word shapes feel continuous and quick. Rounded-rectangle bowls and restrained detailing keep the texture calm and consistent, especially in longer pangram samples.
