A compact, squared sans built from rounded-rectangle geometry, with uniform stroke thickness and tightly controlled curves. Corners are consistently softened, producing superellipse-like bowls and counters that stay rectangular rather than circular. Proportions are tall and condensed, with short crossbars and minimal apertures, creating a dense, columnar rhythm in text. The forms rely on straight verticals and horizontals, with simplified diagonals (notably in V/W/X/Y/Z) and counters that often read as small, rounded slots.
Best suited to headlines and short-form display settings where its condensed width and blocky geometry can read cleanly—posters, signage, packaging, and bold brand marks. It also works well for tech-themed UI labels or interface-style graphics when used at larger sizes with generous tracking.
The overall tone feels technical and engineered, with a retro-futurist and industrial voice. Its compressed, modular construction evokes display typography used for machines, interfaces, or sci‑fi titling—confident, severe, and highly controlled rather than friendly or calligraphic.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, high-impact geometric voice built from rounded-rectangle forms, emphasizing consistency and a machine-made feel. It prioritizes strong silhouette and stylistic cohesion over open apertures and extended text comfort.
Distinctive features include a squared, inset-style counter treatment in letters like A, B, D, O, and 8, and a notably geometric lowercase with tall ascenders and compact bowls. The numeral set follows the same rounded-rect discipline, with a simple, angular 2/3/7 and a blocky 0/8 that remain very legible at display sizes.
