A compact, condensed sans with monoline strokes and generously rounded terminals. Curves are smooth and slightly squarish in places, giving bowls and counters a softly rectilinear feel while keeping the overall texture even. The cap height reads tall relative to the narrow set width, and spacing is kept tight for a dense, rhythmic line. Forms stay simple and consistent, with minimal contrast and a clear, uncluttered skeleton that remains legible at display sizes.
Well suited to headlines, short blocks of text, labels, and signage where a narrow footprint is useful and a friendly tone is desired. It works especially well for packaging, storefront-style graphics, and brand systems that need a clean sans with softened edges.
The rounded endings and tall, slim proportions create a friendly, lightly retro tone that feels casual and approachable rather than technical. Its even stroke weight and compact rhythm give it a tidy, organized voice, while the softened geometry keeps it from feeling rigid.
The design appears aimed at providing a space-efficient sans with a warm, rounded finish—combining straightforward, legible construction with a slightly nostalgic, display-ready personality.
Distinctive numerals and straightforward punctuation contribute to a utilitarian, sign-friendly character. The lowercase maintains a steady vertical emphasis, and round characters like o/e keep open counters for clarity within the condensed footprint.
