A compact, condensed sans with monoline strokes and a squared-round construction that reads like rounded rectangles softened at the corners. Curves are controlled and slightly superelliptical, while straight stems stay vertical and consistent, producing an even, engineered rhythm. Counters are relatively tight and apertures are modest, reinforcing a dense texture in paragraphs. The lowercase shows a single-storey a and g, simple shoulders and terminals, and punctuation with clean, no-frills dots and marks.
Well suited for situations where space is limited and a tidy, contemporary tone is needed—UI labels, navigation systems, and compact editorial subheads. It can also work for posters and packaging that benefit from a narrow, efficient silhouette and a clean, technical texture.
The overall tone is modern and matter-of-fact, with a slightly industrial, system-like feel. Its condensed stance and squared-round geometry give it a contemporary, technical voice that feels organized and efficient rather than expressive or decorative.
The design appears intended to deliver a space-saving sans with a controlled, geometric voice, prioritizing consistency and clarity across letters and numbers. Its rounded-rectangle forms suggest a deliberate bridge between strict geometry and friendly softness without becoming playful.
Numerals follow the same compact logic, with a tall, narrow 0 and straightforward, legible forms that match the text weight and spacing. The set maintains consistent stroke endings and corner radii across caps, lowercase, and figures, which helps it stay coherent in UI-like layouts and dense settings.
