A compact, condensed sans with monoline strokes and softly squared, superellipse-style curves. Forms are built from straight verticals and horizontals with rounded corners, giving counters a rounded-rectangle feel (notably in O, D, and 0). Terminals are mostly flat and blunt, with occasional angled joins in diagonals that keep letters like K, V, W, X, and Y crisp. Lowercase structure is simple and legible, with a single-storey a and g, a small-shouldered r, and tall, narrow bowls that maintain a tight rhythm across words.
Best suited to headlines, posters, packaging, and signage where a compact footprint and strong vertical rhythm help text stay bold and orderly. It can also work for short UI labels or technical callouts when space is limited, though the condensed width favors larger sizes and shorter runs of text.
The overall tone feels industrial and pragmatic, with a subtle mid-century/utility signage flavor. The rounded-rectangle geometry adds a friendly softness without losing a disciplined, technical voice.
The design appears aimed at delivering a space-saving, highly legible sans that blends geometric discipline with rounded, superellipse forms. It prioritizes a consistent stroke system and compact proportions for impactful, practical typography in display and labeling contexts.
The condensed proportions and tight internal spacing create a strong vertical cadence, making the font read as compact and efficient. Numerals follow the same rounded-rect geometry and look sturdy and display-forward, with clear differentiation between curved and straight-sided figures.
