A condensed sans with monoline strokes and a consistent rounded-rectangle (superelliptic) construction across bowls, counters, and terminals. Corners are smoothly radiused, giving straight-sided forms like E, F, H, and N a softened, engineered feel, while round letters such as O, C, and G read as squarish ovals rather than perfect circles. The overall rhythm is tight and vertical, with compact sidebearings and fairly closed apertures, producing dense word shapes. Lowercase forms are simple and sturdy, with a single-storey a and g, short-armed r, and a minimal t; numerals follow the same squared-round logic, with a distinctive slashed zero.
This font suits interfaces, dashboards, wayfinding, and other contexts that benefit from compact, high-density letterforms. Its sturdy, rounded geometry also works well for contemporary branding, packaging, and poster headlines where a clean, engineered character is desired.
The tone is modern and pragmatic with a subtle friendliness from the rounded geometry. It feels system-like and efficient—more technical than expressive—while avoiding harshness thanks to the softened corners and even stroke weight.
The design appears intended to deliver an efficient, space-saving sans with a cohesive superelliptic backbone, balancing a technical, constructed feel with approachable rounded corners for versatile modern communication.
Caps and numerals present a strong, uniform silhouette that holds up at display sizes, while the condensed proportions increase information density. Curves transition into straights with little modulation, reinforcing a constructed, modular look in both text and headlines.
