A condensed, monoline sans built from tall, rounded-rectangle forms. Curves tend toward superelliptical bowls with softened corners, while stems stay straight and evenly weighted, producing a clean, linear rhythm. Counters are narrow and vertical, apertures are tight, and terminals are consistently rounded, giving letters a unified, engineered feel. The numerals follow the same tall, streamlined construction, with simple, open shapes and restrained curves.
Best suited to display typography where its tall, condensed silhouette can create strong vertical presence—headlines, posters, wordmarks, packaging, and environmental or wayfinding-style signage. It also works well for short UI labels or navigational text when set with ample spacing, but is most compelling at medium-to-large sizes where the rounded geometry is clearly visible.
The overall tone is sleek and modern, with a slightly clinical precision. Its elongated proportions and sparse stroke presence create an airy, refined look that can read as elegant, futuristic, or art-deco adjacent depending on setting and spacing.
The type appears designed to deliver a disciplined, space-efficient sans with a distinctive superelliptical geometry—combining minimal stroke contrast with rounded-rectangle bowls to create a recognizable, contemporary voice.
The design’s strength comes from its consistent width logic and repeated rounded-rectangle motifs across bowls and joints, which keeps text looking orderly at larger sizes. In longer lines, the condensed build and tight internal spaces can make dense copy feel compressed, favoring careful tracking and generous line spacing.
