A compact, tightly set sans with tall proportions and a strongly vertical stance. Strokes are consistently monoline with minimal contrast, and curves resolve into rounded-rectangle, superellipse-like forms that keep bowls and counters smooth and controlled. Terminals are clean and largely straight-cut, producing crisp joins and a restrained rhythm. Round letters stay narrow and upright, while diagonals (such as in A, V, W, X) are slim and sharply defined, reinforcing an economical, space-saving texture.
This style performs well where space is limited and a clean, contemporary voice is needed—such as headlines, posters, labels, packaging, and wayfinding. It can also suit UI or product typography when a condensed, orderly texture is desired.
The overall tone is modern and efficient, with a slightly technical, system-like feel. Its narrow, upright shapes and rounded geometry read as calm and utilitarian rather than expressive, giving it a contemporary editorial or interface sensibility.
The design appears aimed at delivering a space-efficient sans that stays legible and consistent through a geometric, rounded construction. Its restrained detailing and uniform stroke behavior suggest a focus on clarity, modernity, and a disciplined typographic rhythm.
The condensed proportions create a strong vertical cadence, especially in mixed case, and the rounded corners soften the otherwise strict construction. Numerals match the same narrow, monoline logic, supporting a cohesive typographic color across text and display settings.
