A condensed monoline sans built from rounded-rectangle geometry: vertical strokes are straight and firm, while curves terminate in softened corners that read as superelliptical rather than circular. Counters are tight and largely rectangular, producing a compact rhythm and a strong vertical emphasis. Uppercase forms are tall and pared back, and many letters rely on simple stems plus rounded bowls; diagonals (V, W, X) stay crisp but remain visually consistent with the softened terminals. Numerals follow the same narrow, upright construction, with clear, poster-like silhouettes.
Works best for headlines and display settings where space is tight and a strong, condensed voice is needed. It suits signage, packaging, labels, and brand marks that benefit from a clean, engineered look and consistent monoline strokes.
The tone is practical and architectural, with a subtle retro-industrial flavor. Its compressed proportions and squared-rounded shaping suggest signage, labeling, and technical display work rather than expressive handwriting or classical typography.
Likely designed to deliver maximum impact in minimal horizontal space while maintaining friendly legibility through rounded corners. The simplified, modular construction points to an intention of creating a durable, reproducible display sans for titles and functional graphic applications.
The font’s character comes from the tension between rigid vertical structure and rounded corners, giving letters a streamlined, machined feel. In text, the narrow set and compact counters create a dense texture that favors short bursts and larger sizes over extended reading.
