A monoline sans with extremely slim strokes and condensed proportions, built from rounded-rectangle/superellipse geometry. Curves are smooth and evenly tensioned, with vertical stems dominating and corners consistently softened rather than sharply cut. Counters tend to be open and tall; round letters like O/Q read as vertically stretched capsules, and joins stay clean and understated. Terminals are simple and unembellished, giving the alphabet a disciplined, schematic rhythm.
Best suited to large sizes where the hairline strokes and condensed shapes can breathe—headlines, posters, logotypes, and minimalist brand systems. It can also work for interface labels or packaging where a sleek, unobtrusive voice is desired, but it benefits from ample size and contrast in reproduction.
The overall tone is quiet and precise—more architectural than expressive. Its tall, narrow silhouettes and soft corners create a cool, modern feel that reads as tech-forward and refined, with an intentionally lightweight presence.
The design appears intended to deliver a streamlined, geometric sans optimized for a contemporary, high-precision look. By combining condensed proportions with superelliptic rounds and a strictly even stroke, it prioritizes visual consistency and a clean, modern signature over warmth or traditional text comfort.
Spacing appears generous relative to the narrow letterforms, helping prevent the thin strokes from collapsing in text. Distinctive superelliptic bowls and a consistent use of rounded corners give the design a cohesive, systemlike identity across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
