A condensed, monoline sans with rounded joins and softly tapered terminals. The overall geometry leans on clean vertical strokes paired with circular and elliptical bowls, producing open counters and clear apertures. Proportions are tall and slim, with compact widths and consistent stroke behavior that keeps the texture even in continuous text. Numerals follow the same pared-back construction, with smooth curves and simple, readable forms.
It works especially well for headlines and display lines where a tall, space-saving silhouette is desirable, such as posters, packaging, and brand wordmarks. In editorial layouts it can add a contemporary, distinctive voice to pull quotes, subheads, and short passages where a refined condensed texture is an advantage.
The font feels modern and airy, with a lightly playful character that comes from its narrow proportions and rounded, slightly quirky details. It reads clean and contemporary while still projecting a personable, approachable tone.
The design appears intended to deliver a space-efficient sans that stays legible and smooth, combining straightforward, geometric construction with subtle personality. Its emphasis on open counters and consistent strokes suggests a focus on clarity and a clean, modern presence.
Letterforms maintain a steady rhythm in paragraphs, with generous interior space helping prevent the condensed width from feeling cramped. Curved characters (like C, O, S) stay smooth and even, while straight-sided forms keep a crisp, architectural posture.
