A tightly condensed sans with a monoline stroke and a distinctly modular construction. Curves resolve into rounded-rectangle (superellipse-like) corners, giving bowls and shoulders a squared-off softness rather than true circularity. Verticals dominate, horizontals are crisp, and terminals are clean and unbracketed, producing an even, engineered rhythm. Counters are compact but open enough for display sizes, with simple, consistent shapes across capitals, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to display applications where its condensed proportions and modular curves can read as a deliberate style choice—headlines, posters, labels, packaging, and brand marks. It also works well for signage-like typography and UI moments that benefit from a compact, structured look, though longer passages may want generous size and spacing.
The overall tone feels retro-futurist and architectural: streamlined, efficient, and slightly playful due to the softened rectangular curves. It suggests mid-century signage and modern UI aesthetics at the same time, balancing friendliness with a technical, utilitarian edge.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact sans with a distinctive rounded-rect geometry—prioritizing consistency, space efficiency, and a recognizable silhouette. Its systematic curves and straight-sided forms aim for a clean, contemporary feel while nodding to vintage industrial and transit lettering.
Several letters emphasize straight-sided bowls and narrow apertures, reinforcing a compact, space-saving texture. The figure set follows the same rounded-rect geometry, reading cohesive and sign-like in running text, while the condensed width creates strong vertical cadence and tall silhouettes.
