A tall, tightly set sans with monoline strokes and rounded-rectangle geometry throughout. Curves resolve into soft superellipse-like corners rather than true circles, giving bowls and counters a gently squared, controlled feel. Terminals are clean and mostly blunt, joins are neat, and the overall rhythm is vertical and streamlined, with narrow proportions and generous inner whitespace for clarity at display sizes.
Well suited to headlines, posters, and brand wordmarks where a condensed footprint is useful and the rounded-square voice can feel distinctive without becoming quirky. It can also work in packaging and signage systems that need a clean, space-efficient sans with a contemporary edge.
The tone is contemporary and restrained, with a precise, engineered calm. Its condensed stance and rounded-squared forms suggest a modern, urban sensibility—functional and efficient rather than expressive or decorative.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern condensed sans that stays neutral and legible while standing out through superellipse-based rounding and controlled proportions. It prioritizes a sleek vertical rhythm and clear, simplified letterforms for compact display typography.
Uppercase forms read especially architectural, with simplified construction and minimal modulation; diagonals (A, V, W, X) stay sharp while rounds (O, C, G, Q) keep the softened-square contour. The lowercase follows the same logic, with compact bowls and straightforward ascenders/descenders, reinforcing a consistent, utilitarian texture in text.
