A condensed, monolinear sans with tall proportions and rounded-rectangle (superellipse) curves. Strokes stay even and clean, with softened corners on bowls and terminals that keep the geometry friendly rather than sharp. Counters are narrow and vertical, and the overall rhythm is tight and columnar, with a strong emphasis on straight stems and compact, upright curves. Numerals follow the same narrow, vertically oriented logic, maintaining the same restrained, consistent stroke behavior across the set.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and branding where vertical economy and strong typographic presence are needed. It can work well for wayfinding and packaging systems that benefit from a compact footprint and consistent geometric texture. In longer text, it will emphasize a dense, high-contrast typographic color due to its condensed proportions, making it most comfortable at larger sizes or with generous leading.
The font reads as contemporary and efficient, with a streamlined, metropolitan tone. Its compressed silhouette and tidy geometry suggest clarity and control, lending a slightly industrial, signage-like confidence while still feeling refined enough for editorial settings.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, contemporary sans optimized for impactful display typography, pairing strict vertical structure with softened, superelliptical curves to avoid harshness. The consistent, even stroke treatment supports a clean, system-ready look that stays legible while maximizing space efficiency.
The rounded-rectangle construction is especially apparent in characters with bowls and arches, giving the face a unified geometric voice. The condensed spacing and vertical stress create strong texture in paragraphs and a high-impact, stacked look in headlines.
