A tightly condensed, geometric sans with rounded-rectangle construction and consistent stroke thickness. Curves are drawn as smooth superelliptical bowls, while many verticals read as tall capsules that end in softly rounded terminals. Counters are relatively small and often vertically oriented, giving the letters a compact, columnar rhythm; joins are clean and minimal, with occasional angled cuts that add snap to shapes like S, Z, and 2. Numerals and lowercase echo the same narrow, upright stance, with simplified forms and a steady, monoline texture that stays even across words.
Best used for headlines, titles, and brand marks where a compact, retro-modern voice is desired. It can work well on packaging or signage that benefits from condensed width and bold presence, especially at medium to large sizes. In longer passages, the tight counters and narrow proportions may reduce comfort, so it’s most effective for short, impactful copy.
The overall tone feels Art Deco–adjacent and distinctly retro, with a streamlined, poster-like presence. Its narrow silhouettes and rounded geometry create a friendly, slightly whimsical modern-vintage mood rather than a purely technical one. The font reads as stylish and attention-grabbing, suited to expressive short text where character shapes can be appreciated.
The design appears intended to deliver a streamlined, decorative sans that blends geometric discipline with softened corners. Its narrow stance and superelliptical curves suggest an aim for strong vertical rhythm and a distinctive display identity. Subtle angled cuts and simplified forms seem chosen to keep letters recognizable while maintaining a cohesive, stylized theme.
Spacing appears relatively tight, reinforcing the condensed feel and producing strong vertical patterning in text. The lowercase shows single-storey a and g, and several letters feature small, deliberate notches or angled terminals that help differentiate shapes within the narrow width. Rounded forms (C, G, O, Q) stay close to a pill/squircle geometry, contributing to a cohesive, system-like look across the set.
