A slim, condensed sans with consistent monoline strokes and a clean, geometric construction. Curved letters resolve into rounded-rectangle/superellipse-like bowls, while straight stems stay rigid and vertical, creating a crisp, engineered rhythm. Counters are small but clear, terminals are largely plain and unbracketed, and joins are tidy with little to no stroke modulation. Figures and lowercase follow the same narrow, vertical emphasis, with simple, open forms and restrained detailing.
Works best for display and short-to-medium passages where its condensed proportions help fit long titles, labels, or columnar layouts. It suits modern branding systems, editorial headlines, packaging copy, and UI moments where a subtle, lightweight typographic presence is preferred over heavy emphasis.
The overall tone is quiet and contemporary, leaning toward refined minimalism rather than friendliness. Its narrow, high-reaching proportions give it a slightly technical, editorial feel—cool, controlled, and space-efficient.
The design appears intended to deliver a highly space-efficient sans with a refined, geometric flavor—prioritizing clean repetition, strict vertical rhythm, and rounded-rectangular curvature for a contemporary, minimalist identity.
At text sizes the thin strokes and tight internal spaces can feel delicate, while at display sizes the geometric rounding and strict verticality read as distinctive. The sample text shows a consistent texture with a strong vertical cadence, suitable for layouts where a light, unobtrusive voice is desired.
