A tall, compact sans with squared, rounded-rectangle construction and a pronounced thick–thin contrast. Curves resolve into superellipse-like bowls with flattened sides, while joins and terminals are clean and mostly unbracketed, giving a sharp, machined finish. Counters tend to be narrow and vertically oriented, and several forms (notably rounded letters and numerals) read as softly squared rather than circular, creating a consistent, modular rhythm across the set.
Best suited to display typography such as headlines, subheads, posters, magazine titles, and brand marks where its tall proportions and squared-round forms can define a strong identity. It can also work for short blocks of copy at larger sizes when you want a crisp, contemporary texture with clear figure presence.
The overall tone is contemporary and editorial, combining a refined, high-contrast voice with an engineered, architectural rigidity. It feels assertive and stylish, with a slightly industrial coolness that keeps it from becoming decorative.
The design appears intended to merge a modern grotesque skeleton with superellipse-based geometry and fashion-style contrast, producing a distinctive, premium look that remains orderly and systematized. It emphasizes a controlled, vertical rhythm and a memorable, softly squared roundness for branding and editorial impact.
The sample text shows strong vertical emphasis and a tight, columnar texture that holds together well in headline settings. Distinctive squarish bowls and straight-sided rounds give the design a recognizable silhouette, especially in capitals and numerals.
