A condensed, monoline sans with tall proportions and a disciplined, even rhythm. Strokes stay consistently thin with little visible modulation, and curves are drawn cleanly with smooth, rounded joins. Counters are relatively open for such a narrow design, while overall spacing is tight and vertical emphasis is strong; rounded forms like O and C read as slim ovals. The lowercase keeps a straightforward, single-storey structure where visible (e.g., a and g), and dots and terminals are simple and unembellished.
Well suited to headlines, posters, and short display lines where a condensed width helps fit more characters without losing a clean silhouette. It can work for branding and packaging that aims for a contemporary, understated look, and for UI labels or navigation where vertical economy is helpful—provided sizes and spacing are chosen to keep the thin strokes legible.
The tone is modern and restrained, projecting clarity and efficiency rather than warmth or expressiveness. Its tall, spare letterforms feel architectural and technical, giving text a streamlined, contemporary presence.
The design appears intended to deliver a space-saving, contemporary sans that reads cleanly and consistently across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals. Its focus is on a tall, orderly texture and simple geometry, prioritizing neutrality and clarity over stylistic flourishes.
At larger sizes the thin strokes and narrow widths create an elegant, lightweight texture; in dense settings the compact spacing can make words feel tightly packed, so careful tracking and line spacing will help maintain readability. Numerals follow the same tall, slender construction, matching the overall vertical cadence.
