A tightly condensed sans with monoline strokes and a squared-off, rounded-corner construction. Curves resolve into soft rectangles and superellipse-like bowls, giving letters a tubular, engineered feel. Vertical strokes dominate, counters are compact, and spacing reads even and disciplined across text. Uppercase forms are tall and narrow with simplified joins, while the lowercase keeps a high, compact structure with minimal modulation and consistently rounded terminals.
Best suited to space-constrained settings where a compact footprint is helpful: headlines, posters, navigation/signage, and UI labels. It also works well for modern packaging and brand systems that want a streamlined, engineered texture.
The overall tone is efficient and contemporary, with a slightly industrial, signage-like clarity. Its narrow rhythm and rounded-rect geometry feel technical and organized rather than expressive or playful.
The design appears intended to maximize legibility and consistency within a narrow width, using a rounded-rect geometric system to keep the letterforms cohesive and modern. It prioritizes compactness and a uniform typographic color over calligraphic nuance.
Round characters such as O, Q, and 0 lean toward rounded rectangles rather than perfect circles, and many terminals end with softly squared corners. The punctuation and numerals follow the same condensed, monoline logic, maintaining a consistent color in running text.
