A condensed, monoline sans with gently rounded terminals and soft corners throughout. Strokes stay even with minimal contrast, while letterforms are tall and narrow with generous counters for a light, open feel. Curves are simple and continuous, and joins are kept smooth rather than angular, producing a tidy rhythm in text. Figures follow the same narrow, rounded construction, giving numerals a consistent, streamlined presence.
Well suited for headlines, posters, packaging, and signage where a compact, tall sans is useful for fitting more characters into limited space. It can also work for branding elements that want a clean, friendly voice, particularly in short phrases and display sizes where the rounded terminals are most noticeable.
The overall tone is warm and unpretentious, leaning toward a friendly, slightly whimsical modern-retro feel. Its narrow proportions and softened endings keep it from feeling clinical, making it read as personable and easygoing in headlines and short copy.
The font appears designed to deliver a clean condensed sans profile while softening the feel through rounded terminals and simple, open shapes. It prioritizes an approachable display voice and a consistent, streamlined rhythm across letters and numerals.
The design maintains consistent rounding across capitals, lowercase, and numerals, helping mixed-case settings feel cohesive. The narrow set and open counters make it feel lightweight on the page, especially at larger sizes where its tall silhouette becomes a defining characteristic.
