A tall, tightly set sans with monoline strokes and consistently rounded terminals. The forms are condensed with generous vertical reach, producing an airy, column-like rhythm in text. Curves are soft and continuous, while joins and corners stay smooth rather than sharp, giving many letters a slightly looped, sign-like construction. Counters are compact and apertures lean toward closed, emphasizing a clean, streamlined silhouette.
Best suited for headlines and short copy where its tall, rounded construction can be appreciated—posters, packaging, branding marks, and storefront-style signage. It can also work for captions or UI labels when a friendly, condensed look is desired, though it will typically perform strongest at medium to large sizes.
The overall tone feels retro and lighthearted, with a friendly, easygoing personality. Its narrow, elongated shapes create a jaunty cadence that reads as whimsical rather than formal, evoking mid-century display lettering and casual shop signage.
The design appears intended to provide a distinctive condensed voice that stays approachable through rounded terminals and smooth, monoline construction. It prioritizes a memorable silhouette and rhythmic verticality for display settings while maintaining simple sans forms.
In the sample text, long ascenders/descenders and rounded detailing become prominent at larger sizes, where the font’s distinctive vertical proportions and soft terminals are most apparent. In denser lines, the condensed width and compact counters can make the texture feel tight, reinforcing its display-leaning character.
