A compact grotesque sans with squared, superellipse-like curves and consistently rounded corners. Strokes stay even and sturdy, with minimal modulation and mostly straight-sided construction that keeps counters tight and forms efficient. The letterforms feel condensed with short extenders and a steady, engineered rhythm; bowls and rounds (like O/C/G/Q) read as rounded rectangles rather than circles. Terminals are clean and blunt, and the overall texture is dense and highly uniform in mass and spacing.
This design works best where dense, high-impact typography is needed: headlines, posters, brand marks, packaging, and signage. It also suits UI labels or dashboard-style graphics when a compact, assertive sans is desired and space is limited.
The font projects a modern, pragmatic tone—confident and functional rather than expressive. Its compact geometry and squared curves give it a slightly industrial, technical flavor, suited to straightforward communication and strong emphasis.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact and economy of space through condensed proportions and squared, rounded geometry. It prioritizes clarity and consistency, aiming for a contemporary, engineered look that holds up well at large sizes and in bold messaging.
Capitals are especially compact and blocky, producing a strong headline color, while the lowercase maintains clear differentiation in tight shapes. Numerals follow the same squared-round construction, keeping a consistent, system-like feel across letters and figures.
