A condensed, monolinear sans with a modular, rounded-rectangle construction. Curves are minimized in favor of straight strokes with softened corners and occasional chamfer-like joins, producing a crisp, engineered rhythm. Counters tend toward tall, rectangular openings (notably in C, D, O, and 0/8), and terminals are blunt and uniform. The lowercase is compact with a tall x-height and simple forms; the overall set reads tightly spaced and columnar, with clean vertical emphasis and consistent stroke behavior across letters and numerals.
Works well for compact headlines, posters, logos/wordmarks, and product/packaging graphics where a technical, space-efficient voice is desired. It also suits UI labels, dashboards, and wayfinding-style text when used at larger sizes or with added letterspacing for clarity.
The typeface conveys a technical, industrial tone with a retro-futurist edge—suggesting instrumentation, signage, and machine labeling. Its compact, schematic shapes feel efficient and no-nonsense, while the rounded corners keep it from becoming overly harsh.
The design appears intended to deliver a condensed, modernist sans built from rounded-rect modules—prioritizing uniformity, strong vertical rhythm, and a distinctive techno-industrial character. Its consistent geometry suggests an aim for a cohesive display face that remains functional for short text and labeling.
Distinctive details include a single-storey lowercase a, narrow i/j with square-ish dots, and numerals that echo the same rounded-rect geometry for strong set cohesion. The design’s tight proportions and simplified apertures favor clear silhouettes at display sizes, while smaller sizes may benefit from generous tracking to preserve interior space.
