A very condensed italic sans with tall proportions and a light, even stroke. Curves are smooth and taut, with rounded-rectangle (superellipse-like) bowls and softly squared corners that keep counters open despite the narrow set. Terminals are mostly clean and straight, giving the letters a streamlined, engineered feel; the slant is consistent and the rhythm is regular across caps, lowercase, and figures. Numerals follow the same narrow, upright structure with simple, open shapes and minimal detailing.
Best suited for headlines, subheads, captions, and space-constrained applications where a tall, condensed italic can add energy without visual clutter. It can work well in editorial layouts, modern branding systems, packaging, and UI labeling where a sleek, compact typographic voice is desired.
The overall tone is contemporary and efficient, combining a sleek forward motion from the italic with a restrained, utilitarian simplicity. Its narrow width and airy stroke create a high-tech, fashion/editorial mood rather than something warm or traditional.
Likely designed to deliver a compact, contemporary sans voice with a consistent italic flow, maximizing verticality and economy of space while keeping rounded forms legible and refined. The superellipse-like curves and minimal terminals suggest an intention toward clean, modern display and interface-oriented typography.
The condensed width produces strong vertical emphasis and tight word shapes, while the rounded-rectangular curves prevent forms from feeling brittle. In longer samples the slant and narrow set create a continuous, fast-moving texture with clear differentiation between major forms.
