A tall, condensed sans with softly squared, superelliptical curves and rounded-rectangle counters. Strokes read mostly even, with gentle modulation at joins and terminals, and corners consistently smoothed rather than sharply cut. The letters are built from upright verticals and controlled arcs, producing a clean rhythm and crisp spacing; bowls and apertures stay relatively tight, emphasizing a sleek, columnar texture. Numerals echo the same rounded-rect geometry, with open, airy shapes and restrained terminal details.
Best suited to display settings where its narrow, tall proportions can create strong vertical rhythm—headlines, posters, packaging, and brand wordmarks. It can also work for short editorial callouts or pull quotes where a refined, stylized voice is desired, especially at moderate-to-large sizes.
The overall tone is polished and architectural, evoking classic display lettering with a contemporary finish. Its condensed proportions and softened corners feel simultaneously glamorous and approachable, balancing vintage sophistication with modern minimalism.
The design appears intended to deliver a distinctive, superelliptical take on a condensed sans—prioritizing elegance, economy of width, and a consistent geometric system that reads clearly while adding character.
Distinctive superelliptical construction is especially apparent in rounded letters and counters, where forms feel closer to rounded rectangles than circles. The font maintains a consistent vertical emphasis across both cases, and the lowercase shows tidy, understated details that keep the texture smooth in longer lines.
