A compact sans with tall proportions and a tight, economical footprint. Strokes read consistently and evenly, while terminals are cleanly cut with subtly softened corners that give many curves a rounded-rectangle feel. Round letters (like O/C/G) appear more superelliptical than purely circular, and several forms show relatively closed apertures and narrow internal counters, reinforcing the condensed rhythm. Overall spacing and proportions create a vertical, efficient texture that stays crisp at display sizes.
Works well where space is limited and you need a clear, compact voice—such as interface labels, navigation, packaging panels, and signage. The narrow rhythm and sturdy shapes also suit headlines and subheads, and the consistent alphanumerics make it a solid option for dashboards, charts, and product codes.
The tone is straightforward and contemporary, balancing a technical, engineered clarity with a mild friendliness from the rounded geometry. It feels functional and no-nonsense rather than expressive, suited to clean systems and information-forward design.
The design appears intended to deliver a space-saving, modern sans with a controlled geometric system and softened rectangular curves, prioritizing clarity and consistency across letters and numbers while maintaining a contemporary, approachable finish.
The condensed set width and tall capitals produce strong line economy and a slightly emphatic verticality in words. The numeral set matches the same compact, squared-round construction, helping mixed alphanumeric strings feel uniform and controlled.
