A tall, condensed sans with monoline strokes and gently rounded corners throughout. Curves are built from soft, squared-off bowls, giving round letters a superelliptic, rounded-rectangle feel rather than perfect circles. Verticality dominates the rhythm, with straight stems, compact sidebearings, and narrow apertures that keep words tightly knit. Joins and terminals are clean and unadorned, producing a precise, consistent texture in both uppercase and lowercase, with lining figures matching the same slender proportions.
Well suited to headlines and display settings where a compact footprint is useful, such as posters, packaging, navigation, and signage. It can also work for UI labels and short blocks of text when a clean, narrow typographic color is desired, especially at medium to large sizes.
The overall tone is restrained and contemporary, with an engineered, signage-like clarity. Its narrow, upright stance feels efficient and space-conscious, while the softened geometry keeps it approachable rather than stark.
The design appears intended to deliver an efficient condensed sans with a distinctive softened-rectangle geometry, balancing compactness with a friendly, contemporary finish. It prioritizes a consistent vertical rhythm and straightforward letterforms for clear, modern communication.
Several glyphs emphasize the condensed geometry: circular forms read as elongated ovals with flattened sides, and many letters rely on simple, straight construction for a crisp silhouette. The punctuation and numerals follow the same pared-back logic, reinforcing a uniform, modern voice.
