A tall, tightly proportioned sans with monoline strokes and rounded-rectangle (superellipse-like) curves. The overall geometry is clean and spare, with simple construction, open apertures, and smooth terminals that keep counters crisp despite the narrow set. Rhythm is vertical and even, with straight-sided stems and gently rounded bowls that read consistently across capitals, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited to headlines and display lines where a condensed footprint is an advantage, such as posters, magazine titling, packaging, and identity wordmarks. It can also work for short signage or interface labels when space is limited, especially at moderate sizes where the fine, monoline strokes remain clear.
The tone is restrained and contemporary, projecting a cool, design-forward feel rather than warmth or ornament. Its narrow silhouette and uncluttered forms give it an editorial, architectural presence that feels precise and efficient.
The design appears intended to deliver a space-saving, modern sans that stays distinctive through tall proportions and superellipse-derived rounding while remaining neutral enough for broad graphic use. Its consistent stroke weight and simplified forms prioritize clean reproduction and a controlled, contemporary texture.
Uppercase characters emphasize height and clarity, while the lowercase maintains a straightforward, utilitarian structure with compact joins. Numerals match the same slim, rounded-rectangular logic, supporting a cohesive texture in mixed alphanumeric settings.
