A condensed geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle (superelliptic) forms with a consistent monoline stroke. Curves resolve into squared bowls and softened corners, creating a tall, compressed silhouette with compact counters. Terminals are predominantly flat and orthogonal, while several joins and diagonals are simplified into crisp angles, giving the overall texture a tight, vertical rhythm. The lowercase follows the same modular construction, and the numerals share the same narrow proportions and squared curves for a uniform system feel.
Best suited to short text where its condensed geometry can work as a distinctive visual signature—headlines, posters, logotypes, and brand wordmarks. It also fits wayfinding, labels, and packaging where a technical, space-saving voice is useful, especially at medium to large sizes.
The font projects a utilitarian, engineered tone—part retro display, part technical labeling. Its compressed, modular shapes evoke signage, machinery plates, and sci‑fi interface typography, balancing friendliness from rounded corners with a disciplined, mechanical regularity.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, high-impact display sans with a consistent modular construction. By using rounded-rectangular curves and straight-sided counters, it aims to feel modern and functional while nodding to vintage industrial and early-digital aesthetics.
Round letters like O/C/G read as squared ovals, and diagonal-heavy forms (such as K, V, W, X, Y) feel sharply constructed within the narrow width. The overall spacing and dense vertical emphasis create a strong headline presence and a distinct, gridlike consistency in running text.
