A compact, condensed sans with monoline strokes and squared, superellipse-like curves. Terminals are clean and mostly flat, with rounded corners that soften the otherwise blocky construction. Counters tend toward rounded-rectangular shapes, and the overall fit and spacing emphasize a steady, modular rhythm. Uppercase forms are tall and economical, while the lowercase keeps a straightforward structure with minimal detailing and clearly separated dots on i/j.
Well-suited to headlines and short bursts of text where space is limited, such as posters, signage, packaging, and product labeling. The consistent rhythm and compact proportions also make it a practical choice for UI labels, badges, and interface elements that need a firm, neutral voice.
The tone is functional and workmanlike, evoking labeling, equipment markings, and straightforward modern display typography. Its condensed build reads assertive and efficient, with a slightly retro-industrial flavor from the squared curves and uniform stroke weight.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, space-saving sans that stays highly regular and visually consistent across letters and numbers. By combining condensed proportions with rounded-rectangular curves, it aims for clarity and impact without ornamental distractions.
The numerals are similarly narrow and solid, with simple, legible forms suited to tight layouts. Distinctive superellipse curves are most apparent in rounded letters like C, G, O, Q, and in the bowl shapes of b/d/p/q, reinforcing a cohesive, engineered feel.
