A tall, condensed sans with monoline strokes and softly squared, superelliptical curves. Vertical stems dominate, with rounded terminals and compact bowls that read like rounded rectangles rather than perfect circles. Counters are tight and upright, and the overall rhythm is crisp and even, with narrow letterforms and clear separation between strokes. The lowercase shows simplified constructions (single-storey a and g), a straight, compact t, and small, neat dots on i and j, all reinforcing a streamlined, utilitarian texture.
Best suited to display sizes where its narrow build can pack information into tight spaces—headlines, posters, and brand wordmarks benefit from its vertical emphasis and clean rhythm. It also works well for signage and packaging where a tidy, technical tone and high clarity are desired.
The font conveys a cool, pared-back modernism with a subtle retro-tech flavor. Its condensed proportions and rounded-rect geometry feel efficient and engineered, suggesting signage, equipment labeling, and contemporary editorial display without becoming cold or harsh.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, highly legible condensed voice using consistent monoline construction and superelliptical rounding. It prioritizes efficient width, stable upright structure, and a cohesive geometric system that stays clean in both letters and numerals.
Round forms such as O, C, and G keep a squared-off curvature that maintains consistent aperture and counter shapes across the set. Numerals follow the same tall, narrow logic, with clean, open shapes that match the letters’ restrained detailing.
