A compact, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle construction and consistently softened corners. Strokes are uniform and sturdy, with squared terminals and a mostly straight-sided silhouette that keeps counters tight and rectangular. The overall proportions run tall and condensed, producing a strong vertical rhythm; round characters resolve into superelliptical forms rather than true circles. Spacing feels pragmatic and tight, supporting dense setting while keeping forms distinct at display sizes.
Well-suited for short, high-impact text such as headlines, posters, and branding lockups where a condensed, blocky presence is desirable. The sturdy, rounded-square forms also fit wayfinding and signage, as well as packaging and UI labels where a technical, utilitarian voice helps information feel organized and deliberate.
The tone is functional and assertive, with a contemporary, engineered feel. Its rounded-square geometry suggests technology, signage, and product labeling rather than softness or calligraphy, projecting clarity and control.
The design appears intended to merge the efficiency of a condensed grotesk with a superelliptical, rounded-rectangle skeleton, prioritizing strong silhouette recognition and a clean, engineered texture. It aims to stay straightforward and readable while delivering a distinctive, modern industrial flavor.
Uppercase forms maintain a disciplined, boxy structure, while lowercase remains similarly compact with simplified joins and minimal modulation. Numerals match the same rounded-rectilinear logic, giving text a consistent, system-like texture across letters and figures.
