A condensed, monoline sans built from rounded-rectangle forms and squared curves. Strokes are consistently heavy with minimal modulation, and terminals are mostly blunt with softened corners, producing a clean superellipse rhythm. Counters tend to be narrow and vertically oriented, and curves resolve into flat-sided bowls rather than fully circular shapes. The lowercase follows the same rectilinear logic with compact apertures and simple, engineered joins, keeping spacing tight and vertical momentum strong.
Best suited to display sizes where its condensed, squared forms and narrow counters remain clear—such as posters, titles, branding marks, packaging, and wayfinding-style signage. It can work for short UI labels or interface motifs when a futuristic, utilitarian voice is desired, but extended text will benefit from generous tracking and leading.
The overall tone feels technical and industrial, with a slightly retro, display-oriented attitude reminiscent of signage, instrumentation, and sci‑fi interfaces. Its squared geometry and controlled rounding convey precision and efficiency more than warmth or calligraphy.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, high-impact sans with a disciplined superellipse geometry—prioritizing a strong vertical footprint, consistent stroke weight, and a precise, engineered silhouette for modern/retro-technical styling.
Several glyphs emphasize straight-sided construction (notably in rounded characters like O/C/S), which increases the mechanical feel and makes the font read best when given breathing room. Numerals and caps share the same compact, blocky proportions, supporting strong, uniform color in headlines.
