A condensed sans with tall proportions, generous verticality, and noticeably softened corners that push many curves toward rounded-rectangle (superellipse) geometry. Strokes alternate between hairline-thin and heavier verticals, creating a crisp, high-contrast rhythm while keeping overall forms clean and unadorned. Counters are narrow and often vertically oriented; bowls and ovals read as upright capsules rather than true circles. Terminals are mostly straight-cut with subtle rounding, and the overall texture is airy and linear, with tight character widths and a consistent, disciplined construction.
Well suited to headlines and display typography where height and compression help fit long titles while retaining a premium look. It can work effectively for branding, packaging, and editorial pull quotes, especially at medium-to-large sizes where the contrast and narrow counters remain clear. For longer passages, it benefits from larger sizes and slightly open tracking to preserve legibility.
The tone is cool and contemporary, with a poised, fashion-forward sharpness tempered by friendly rounded corners. It evokes modern signage and magazine typography—confident, refined, and a bit dramatic without becoming ornate. The condensed stance and contrast give it a stylish, high-design presence suited to attention-getting settings.
The design appears intended to merge a condensed, space-efficient skeleton with softened superelliptical curves and a crisp contrast pattern, producing a modern display sans that feels both engineered and elegant. It prioritizes vertical impact and stylistic clarity over neutral text anonymity.
In text, the condensed spacing and narrow counters create a strong vertical cadence; the face reads best when allowed breathing room in tracking and line spacing. Figures and uppercase maintain the same tall, streamlined logic, supporting a cohesive typographic color across mixed-case and numerals.
