A tall, tightly set sans with uniform stroke weight and rounded-rectangle construction. Curves resolve into squared-off, softened corners rather than true circles, giving bowls and counters a compact, capsular look. Stems are straight and parallel with minimal modulation, terminals are blunt and rounded, and the overall rhythm is narrow and vertically emphatic. Numerals and capitals share the same condensed, architectural proportions, producing a dense, stacked texture in text.
Best suited to headlines and display typography where tight width and strong verticality are advantages—posters, packaging, signage, and bold brand marks. It can also work for short UI labels or navigation where space is limited, though its dense forms favor medium-to-large sizes over long reading.
The design reads as industrial and utilitarian, with a subtle retro display flavor reminiscent of signage and mechanical labeling. Its condensed, rounded geometry feels both technical and approachable, projecting a confident, punchy voice without becoming playful.
The font appears intended to deliver maximum impact and legibility in narrow horizontal space by combining condensed proportions with sturdy, rounded-rectilinear shapes. The consistent stroke and softened corners suggest a goal of creating a modernized industrial display sans that stays friendly while remaining authoritative.
Round letters like O/C/Q appear built from a rounded rectangle rather than an oval, which creates a distinctive “superelliptic” silhouette. The lowercase shows compact apertures and simplified joins that help maintain an even, blocky texture at larger sizes.
