A compact sans with heavy, even strokes and tightly controlled proportions. Curves resolve into rounded-rectangle shapes rather than true circles, giving bowls and counters a squarish softness with consistent corner radii. Terminals are mostly flat and vertical, with clean joins and minimal modulation, producing a sturdy, blocklike rhythm. The condensed width and relatively tight apertures concentrate color on the line, while counters remain open enough to keep characters distinct in continuous text.
Best suited for short to medium-length settings where strong impact and compact width are useful, such as headlines, posters, signage, packaging, and bold brand lockups. It can also work in UI labels or dashboards where a dense, sturdy sans helps conserve horizontal space while maintaining clarity.
The overall tone is direct and workmanlike, with a contemporary, engineered feel. Its rounded-rectilinear geometry reads confident and no-nonsense, suggesting signage, equipment labeling, and modern system UI aesthetics rather than expressive or calligraphic personality.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum presence in a restrained, space-efficient footprint, using rounded-rectangle geometry to create a recognizable, contemporary voice. The emphasis on uniform stroke weight and controlled shapes suggests an intention toward dependable legibility and consistent texture across mixed-case text and numerals.
The design’s superelliptical round forms create a distinctive texture: letters feel slightly squared-off even in curved areas, and the consistent stroke weight emphasizes solidity. Numerals and capitals appear built to align cleanly in structured layouts, supporting a strong grid-like presence.
