A tall, tightly packed sans with a strongly condensed stance and even stroke weight throughout. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle/superellipse logic, giving bowls and counters a squared-off softness rather than true circles. Terminals are clean and mostly straight-cut, with compact apertures and a vertical, linear rhythm; diagonals (A, V, W, X) are narrow and sharp, and the lowercase shows single-storey forms with minimal modulation. Figures are similarly narrow and upright, matching the type’s compact proportions and consistent stroke behavior.
Well suited to space-constrained headlines, subheads, and titling where a narrow footprint is useful. Its consistent strokes and compact shapes also make it a solid choice for branding systems, labels/packaging, and signage that benefits from a tall, modern voice.
The overall tone is modern and efficient, with a slightly industrial, architectural feel driven by its tall proportions and squared-rounded geometry. It reads as disciplined and editorial—more about clarity and economy of space than warmth or playfulness.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary condensed sans with a systematic, superellipse-based construction that maintains clarity while maximizing information density. It prioritizes a uniform, engineered texture and a compact silhouette for impactful display use.
The condensed width produces strong vertical texture and dense word shapes, which can heighten impact at display sizes while creating a compressed reading color in longer text. The rounded-rect curves keep the look contemporary and systematic, helping the design feel cohesive across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
