This is a condensed, monoline sans with a superelliptical construction: bowls and counters read like rounded rectangles rather than pure circles. Strokes stay evenly weighted, terminals are clean and blunt, and curves transition smoothly into vertical stems. The narrow proportions and compact spacing create a strong vertical emphasis, with counters kept relatively open for a dense style.
Well suited to headlines, posters, packaging, and brand marks that need a tall, compact wordshape. It also fits UI labels, navigation, and signage where width is constrained but a strong typographic presence is desired. For longer text, it will work best in short bursts—subheads, pull quotes, and captions—rather than extended paragraphs.
The font projects a confident, condensed voice with a retro-industrial edge. Its rounded rectangular curves keep the tone approachable and contemporary, while the tight rhythm and heavy presence feel assertive and energetic.
The design appears intended to deliver high impact in limited horizontal space, using condensed widths and steady stroke weight for consistency. Superelliptical curves and softened corners likely aim to balance strength with approachability, producing a modernized geometric feel that remains readable at display sizes.
Round characters (like O/0 and bowls in B/P/R) show squarish, rounded-rectangle counters, reinforcing a consistent superellipse theme across the set. Several forms feature softened joins and rounded inner corners that keep the heavy, condensed silhouette from feeling harsh.
