A tightly condensed geometric sans with rounded-rectangle construction and consistent stroke weight. Curves are generally squarish and softened at the corners, producing superellipse-like bowls and counters rather than true circles. Terminals are clean and blunt, with occasional notches and interior cut-ins that create a slightly modular, engineered feel. The overall rhythm is compact and vertical, with narrow letterforms, small apertures in places, and a sturdy, uniform texture that holds together strongly in display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, short statements, and logotype-style wordmarks where a compact, high-impact texture is desirable. It also fits packaging, labels, signage, and UI or motion-graphics treatments that aim for a futuristic or industrial aesthetic, especially when set with generous tracking to improve clarity.
The tone is sleek and forward-looking, evoking sci-fi interfaces, industrial labeling, and techno-era graphics. Its compressed stance and squared curves read as efficient and machine-made, with a confident, assertive presence.
The design appears intended to deliver a dense, space-efficient display voice built from rounded-rect geometry, balancing strict modularity with softened corners for a more polished, contemporary feel.
The lowercase shares the same compressed skeleton as the caps, keeping a consistent, systematic voice across cases. Numerals and punctuation follow the same rounded-rect geometry, and the overall silhouette favors verticality over openness, which can increase intensity but may reduce readability at small sizes.
