A condensed, monoline sans with a squared-off skeleton softened by rounded corners. Curves resolve into superelliptical, rounded-rectangle shapes (notably in C, G, O, Q, and 0), while verticals dominate the rhythm, giving the design a tall, efficient stance. Terminals are mostly flat and orthogonal, with consistent stroke thickness and minimal modulation. Counters are compact and rectilinear, and the lowercase maintains a high x-height with simple, single-storey forms and straightforward joins.
Works well for short to medium-length setting where a compact, high-impact texture is useful: interface labels, product branding, wayfinding, and technical or industrial-themed graphics. It also suits posters and titles that want a retro-futurist, system-like voice without the harshness of sharp corners.
The overall tone feels technical and engineered—clean, orderly, and slightly futuristic. Its rounded-rectangle geometry evokes instrumentation, labeling systems, and late-20th-century sci‑fi interfaces, balancing a friendly softness (from the rounding) with a disciplined, industrial structure.
The design appears intended to deliver a space-efficient, highly consistent sans built from rounded-rectilinear forms. It prioritizes uniformity, compactness, and a distinctive squared-yet-soft silhouette that reads as modern and technical in display and UI-style applications.
Distinctive shapes include a squared, rounded 0 and an angular, streamlined 2/3; diagonals (V, W, X, Y) stay narrow and taut, reinforcing the condensed texture. The punctuation and dots appear simple and functional, matching the font’s uniform stroke and squared construction.
