A tall, tightly set sans with a crisp monoline construction and softly rounded corners throughout. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle/superellipse logic rather than true circles, giving bowls and counters a squared-off, architectural feel. The rhythm is vertical and columnar, with narrow apertures, compact bowls, and consistent stroke endings that stay smooth instead of sharp. Uppercase forms read as streamlined and mechanical, while the lowercase keeps the same narrow, upright stance with simple single-storey shapes and minimal modulation.
Best suited for headlines, subheads, and short blocks of text where a compact, vertical texture is desirable. It works well for branding, packaging, wayfinding, and interface labels that benefit from a sleek, space-saving sans with a distinctive geometric signature.
The overall tone feels modern and engineered, with a subtle art-deco/retro-futurist flavor coming from the elongated proportions and rounded-rect geometry. It conveys efficiency and clarity, leaning more toward sleek signage and display than warm, conversational text.
The design appears intended to deliver a space-efficient condensed voice with a recognizable rounded-rect geometry, balancing strict structure with softened corners for a contemporary, system-friendly look.
Numerals and capitals share the same tall, condensed proportions, supporting a uniform, system-like voice. The rounded terminals prevent the rigid geometry from feeling harsh, but the narrow widths and tight internal spaces make the texture dense at smaller sizes.
