A compact sans with tall, tightly proportioned letters built from rounded-rectangle (superelliptical) geometry. Strokes are largely uniform, with smoothly rounded terminals and corners that keep curves controlled rather than circular. Counters are narrow and vertically oriented, and the overall rhythm is even and rigid, giving text a stacked, efficient texture. Distinctive forms include the squared, softened bowls (notably in O/Q and 0), an M with a straight-sided, arch-like interior, and a W rendered as a double-u construction, reinforcing the engineered, modular feel.
Well suited to headlines and short statements where a dense, vertical profile is desirable, such as posters, signage, packaging, and identity marks. It can also work for UI labels or informational graphics when a compact, engineered look is needed, especially at medium-to-large sizes where the narrow counters remain clear.
The tone reads industrial and purposeful, with a subtle retro display flavor reminiscent of machine labeling and mid-century signage. Its condensed, rounded-rectilinear shapes feel technical and orderly rather than friendly, projecting restraint and practicality.
The design appears intended to deliver a space-efficient, high-impact sans that merges strict vertical proportions with softened, superelliptical rounding. The goal seems to be a modernized industrial display voice that stays consistent and legible while maintaining a distinctive, modular silhouette.
The numerals follow the same rounded-rectilinear logic, with compact apertures and a consistent vertical emphasis that helps them sit firmly in lines. In longer text, the tight counters and condensed spacing create strong color and a poster-like density, making it most comfortable when given a bit of size and leading.
