A tall, tightly condensed sans with strongly vertical proportions and rounded-rectangle (superellipse) curves. Strokes read as crisp and clean, with a subtle contrast between straight stems and softened corners that gives bowls and counters a squared-off, engineered look. Terminals are generally flat and blunt, and many letters feature narrow apertures and compact internal space, creating an efficient, columnar rhythm. Numerals follow the same condensed, upright construction for a consistent, system-like texture in text.
Best suited to headlines and display typography where space is limited and a tall, condensed voice is desirable—posters, editorial titles, branding wordmarks, packaging panels, and wayfinding or environmental graphics. It can also work for short UI labels or dashboards when a compact footprint and high legibility at medium-to-large sizes are needed.
The overall tone is streamlined and contemporary, with a refined, utilitarian confidence. Its compressed width and squared-round geometry evoke signage, editorial headlines, and modern industrial design, balancing friendliness from the rounded corners with a disciplined, technical edge.
The font appears designed to deliver a space-saving, modern sans voice built around rounded-rectangle forms, aiming for a clean, engineered aesthetic that stays approachable through softened corners. Its consistent, vertical construction suggests an intention to perform reliably in impactful display settings and structured layouts.
The design’s narrow set and tight counters increase visual density, especially in mixed-case text, while the rounded-square curves keep forms from feeling brittle. The consistent vertical stress and compact widths produce a strong cadence that holds together well in repeated patterns and all-caps settings.
