A slim, monoline sans with tall proportions and consistently rounded corners. Curves are drawn with smooth, even-radius strokes, while terminals tend to finish cleanly without flares, producing a quiet, linear rhythm. Counters are open and oval, with narrow apertures and compact widths that keep words tightly packed. Uppercase forms read orderly and geometric, while the lowercase maintains a simple, streamlined construction with single-storey shapes and restrained joins.
This font suits display settings where space is limited and a sleek, modern voice is desired—headlines, subheads, UI labels, and information design. It can also work well for packaging and editorial pull quotes when paired with a more robust text face to support long-form reading.
The overall tone is understated and contemporary, leaning toward a precise, architectural feel. Its light footprint and tight set convey a sense of efficiency and delicacy rather than bold personality, making it feel calm, neat, and slightly technical.
The design appears intended to deliver a clean, contemporary sans optimized for compact width and a light, elegant presence. It prioritizes uniform stroke behavior and tidy geometry to create a controlled, modern texture across both uppercase and lowercase.
In longer lines, the condensed proportions create a strong vertical cadence and a uniform color, especially where repeated stems dominate. Round letters (like O/C/G) stay smooth and controlled, and diagonals (V/W/X/Y) remain crisp without adding visual weight, reinforcing the font’s slender, disciplined look.
