A condensed, highly vertical sans with an italic slant and extremely light, monoline strokes. Forms are built from rounded-rectangle/superellipse geometry: narrow ovals, soft corners, and smooth, continuous curves that keep counters open despite the tight width. Terminals are clean and unadorned, joins are crisp, and the overall rhythm is even, producing a streamlined texture with strong vertical emphasis in both caps and lowercase. Numerals follow the same slender, elongated construction, with rounded bowls and minimal contrast.
Best suited for headlines, titles, and short promotional lines where a tall, condensed silhouette creates impact without heaviness. It can work well for branding, packaging, and editorial display typography that aims for a modern, high-end sensibility, especially when set at larger sizes with comfortable tracking.
The overall tone is sleek and contemporary, with a refined, fashion-forward austerity. Its thin strokes and stretched proportions read as airy and sophisticated, leaning toward a technical, high-design feel rather than casual friendliness.
The design appears intended to deliver a distinctive condensed voice built on soft-rectilinear curves, combining an italic forward motion with minimal, hairline construction. It prioritizes a polished, contemporary presence and a consistent geometric system over warmth or text-first readability.
Because the strokes are so light and the letterforms are compressed, spacing and size play an outsized role in legibility; the design favors display settings where its elegant verticality can be appreciated. The consistent superelliptical curvature gives the font a cohesive, engineered look across letters and figures.
