A compact, squared sans with rounded-rectangle construction and tight internal apertures. Strokes are heavy and even, with minimal modulation and a consistently upright stance. Curves resolve into softened corners rather than true circles, giving bowls and counters a superellipse feel. Terminals are mostly flat and clipped, and spacing appears disciplined, producing a dense, efficient texture in lines of text.
Best suited to short, high-impact text where compact width and strong color are assets—headlines, posters, labels, and signage. It can also work for branding systems that want a modern, technical voice, especially where space is limited and a dense typographic rhythm is desirable.
The overall tone is purposeful and workmanlike, with a contemporary industrial edge. Its condensed, blocky silhouette reads as confident and no-nonsense, suggesting utility signage, equipment labeling, and performance-driven display settings rather than delicate or expressive typography.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence in a compact footprint, using squared, rounded forms to stay geometric while avoiding harshness. Its consistent stroke weight and simplified terminals prioritize clarity and reproducibility across sizes and production methods.
Distinctive squarish round forms are evident in letters like O/Q and numerals such as 0 and 8, helping the design maintain a consistent geometric logic. Uppercase shapes feel especially compact and engineered, while the lowercase keeps a straightforward, legible structure with minimal stylistic flourish.
