A condensed sans with monoline strokes and a squared-round (superellipse-like) construction. Curves resolve into softly rounded corners rather than true circles, giving counters a rounded-rectangle feel in letters like O, D, and U. Terminals are typically blunt and flat, and bowls and stems maintain consistent thickness with minimal modulation. The uppercase is compact and tall, while the lowercase keeps a straightforward, single-storey approach where visible (e.g., a, g), reinforcing a simple, engineered rhythm. Numerals follow the same tall, narrow proportions with smooth, controlled curvature and crisp joins.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and signage where condensed width helps fit more characters without losing impact. It also works well for packaging, UI labels, and brand marks that benefit from a clean, geometric, industrial character.
The overall tone feels modern and technical with a subtle retro-futurist flavor, reminiscent of industrial labeling and mid-century display typography. Its restrained geometry and compact width convey efficiency and clarity rather than warmth or calligraphic expression.
Likely designed to combine space-efficient condensed proportions with a distinctive squared-round geometry, delivering a clear, engineered look that remains visually consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
Distinctive superelliptical rounding is a defining motif across straight-to-curve transitions, producing a consistent “machined” smoothness. The narrow proportions create a tight typographic color in text, while the squared-round shapes keep forms legible and stable at display sizes.
