A tall, tightly set sans with monoline strokes and rounded-rectangle construction throughout. Curves resolve into soft corners rather than true circles, giving bowls and counters a superelliptical feel. Terminals are clean and generally flat, with a restrained, engineered rhythm and consistent vertical emphasis; joins stay simple and open, keeping the texture light at small sizes despite the condensed proportions.
Well-suited to headlines, subheads, and titling where a compact, vertical look helps fit more characters per line. It can work effectively for branding, packaging, wayfinding, and UI labels that benefit from a clean, space-saving sans with softened geometric forms.
The overall tone is sleek and metropolitan, with a slightly futuristic, display-forward confidence. Its narrow stance and softened geometry read as contemporary and disciplined rather than playful, suggesting efficiency and precision.
The design appears aimed at delivering a space-efficient, modern sans built from rounded-rect geometry, balancing strict verticality with gentle corner radii for a refined, contemporary texture.
The condensed width creates a strong vertical cadence in text and makes spacing feel naturally economical; this also heightens the impact of round counters and corner radii. Numerals and capitals maintain the same tall, streamlined logic, supporting compact settings where horizontal space is limited.
