A condensed, monoline sans with tall proportions and a compact overall footprint. Strokes stay consistently even, with minimal contrast and crisp terminals. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle/superellipse-like geometry, giving bowls and counters a softly squared feel rather than fully circular. Spacing is tight and vertical, with narrow apertures and streamlined joins that keep text rhythm steady at larger sizes.
Works best where space is limited but strong vertical emphasis is desired: headlines, subheads, posters, and cover lines. It can also serve well for branding systems that need a compact wordmark or for UI labels and navigation where condensed text helps fit narrow columns.
The tone is modern and matter-of-fact, emphasizing efficiency and clarity over personality. Its compact, vertical stance reads contemporary and slightly industrial, with a controlled, no-nonsense presence that suits information-forward typography.
Likely designed to deliver a space-saving, contemporary sans with a distinctive rounded-rectangle construction. The goal appears to be consistent texture and efficient readability in condensed settings while adding a subtle geometric signature through superellipse-style curves.
Round letters like O/C/G show squared-off curvature, and the lowercase maintains a tall, condensed stance that keeps word shapes slender. Numerals follow the same compact logic, matching the uppercase/lowercase in stroke weight and proportion for consistent mixed setting.
