A condensed geometric sans with monoline strokes and a distinctly rounded-rectangle construction. Curves are squared-off into superellipse-like corners, giving bowls and counters a compact, engineered feel. Terminals are mostly flat and blunt, with consistent stroke thickness and tidy joins; curves transition into straight segments with crisp, controlled radii. The rhythm is even and orderly, and the overall texture stays uniform across capitals, lowercase, and numerals.
It works well for UI labels, navigation, and information design where space is tight and shapes must remain distinct. The condensed build suits headlines, posters, and packaging that needs a modern, structured look, while the rounded corners help maintain clarity at smaller display sizes.
The tone is modern and pragmatic, with a subtle industrial/tech character. Its softened corners keep it approachable, while the narrow proportions and squared curves read efficient and system-like rather than expressive or calligraphic.
The design appears intended to merge a compact, space-efficient footprint with a friendly, rounded-rect geometry. By keeping strokes uniform and corners consistently radiused, it aims for a clean, repeatable system of forms that feels contemporary and highly functional.
The lowercase mixes single-storey forms (notably the a and g) with simplified, rectilinear silhouettes, reinforcing the geometric concept. Numerals follow the same rounded-rectangle logic, producing a cohesive set suitable for interface and informational typography.
