A condensed, tall sans with uniform stroke weight and clean, linear construction. Curves are narrow and rounded, with an overall superelliptical feel in bowls and counters, while terminals remain crisp and unembellished. Capitals are notably high and slender, and the lowercase is compact with a small x-height and long ascenders/descenders, producing a pronounced vertical rhythm. Spacing appears restrained and consistent, with simple, highly legible forms that emphasize height over width.
Best suited to headlines, posters, titles, and branding where a distinctive, space-saving condensed voice is useful. It can also work for short editorial callouts, labels, and packaging—especially when set with a bit of extra tracking to highlight its vertical cadence.
The font reads as minimalist and modern, with an airy, architectural tension created by its extreme verticality. Its narrow, elongated proportions also give it a slightly quirky, display-forward personality that can feel retro-futurist depending on setting and tracking.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary condensed sans with geometric, rounded-rectangle influences, prioritizing a tall silhouette and minimal detailing for a clean, stylized display presence.
The numerals follow the same tall, condensed logic, with rounded figures (notably 0, 8, 9) and straightforward, linear constructions elsewhere. Overall color on the line is light and open, making it visually quiet at larger sizes but potentially fragile at very small sizes or in low-contrast contexts.
