A compact, geometric sans with squared-round construction and consistently rounded corners. Strokes are uniform and sturdy, with a slightly condensed feel created by tight apertures and blocky terminals. Curves tend toward superellipse-like rounded rectangles, producing boxy bowls and counters (notably in O, D, and 0), while diagonals are crisp and straight, giving the face a strong, engineered rhythm. The lowercase is tall and space-efficient, with simple forms, short ascenders/descenders, and a single-storey a that matches the overall rectilinear curvature.
Best suited to headlines, posters, packaging, and branding that benefits from a solid, tech-forward presence. It also works well for signage and UI labels where a compact, high-impact sans can deliver clear shapes and a consistent rhythm at medium-to-large sizes.
The overall tone is modern and utilitarian, suggesting technology, machinery, and functional signage. Its squared softness balances toughness with approachability, reading as confident and contemporary rather than playful.
The design appears intended to deliver a robust, modern sans built from rounded-rectangular geometry, prioritizing strong silhouettes and a clean, technical voice. The consistent corner rounding and compact proportions suggest a focus on contemporary display use and clear, system-like typography.
Counters are relatively enclosed and apertures are tight, which strengthens the silhouette at larger sizes and in high-contrast settings. Numerals share the same squared-round logic; the 0 is a rounded rectangle, and several figures use flat, horizontal terminals that reinforce a display-forward, engineered look.
