A condensed sans with monoline strokes and a pronounced superelliptic construction: rounds read more like rounded rectangles than true circles. Curves transition quickly into straight segments, creating compact bowls and squared-off shoulders, while terminals are clean and largely flat. Counters are open for the width, with crisp joins and a consistent vertical emphasis that keeps lines tidy in text. Numerals follow the same rounded-rect geometry, maintaining a steady rhythm and clear differentiation across figures.
Works well where space is limited but legibility still matters, such as UI labels, navigation, informational graphics, and compact headlines. The condensed build and consistent stroke make it suitable for packaging panels, posters, and simple identity systems that want a modern, functional voice.
The overall tone is contemporary and pragmatic, leaning toward a technical, signage-like clarity rather than expressive warmth. Its rounded-rectangle forms give it a slightly industrial, system-ui feel—orderly, efficient, and restrained.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, highly structured sans for contemporary applications, using superelliptic rounds to add a recognizable geometry while preserving straightforward readability.
The condensed proportions make vertical stems feel prominent, and the superelliptic rounds add a distinctive silhouette without introducing ornament. In mixed-case settings, the spacing appears measured and even, helping the font stay composed in longer lines.
