A compact, condensed sans with monoline strokes and a distinctly squarish–rounded construction. Curves resolve into rounded-rectangle bowls and superellipse-like counters, giving letters a precise, engineered feel while avoiding sharp corners. Terminals are mostly blunt and clean, with simple joins and minimal modulation; verticals read strong and straight, and round letters stay relatively narrow with even interior spacing. The lowercase is straightforward and workmanlike, with a single-storey a and g, short ascenders/descenders, and open apertures that keep small text crisp.
Well-suited to interface typography, labels, and wayfinding where compact width helps fit more characters per line without sacrificing clarity. It also works for editorial subheads, posters, and packaging systems that benefit from a modern, disciplined sans with slightly softened corners.
The overall tone is contemporary and matter-of-fact—more functional than expressive. Its rounded-rect geometry adds a subtle friendliness, but the tight proportions and strict rhythm keep it firmly in a pragmatic, technical register.
The design appears intended as a space-efficient, contemporary sans that balances strict, rectilinear structure with rounded-corner softness. Its consistent stroke treatment and compact forms suggest a focus on clarity, systematization, and versatile everyday use.
The condensed proportions and squared bowls produce a strong vertical cadence, which can feel efficient and space-saving in layout. Numerals follow the same rounded-rect logic, pairing well with the letterforms for UI and informational settings.
