A condensed, monoline sans with squared, superellipse-like curves and softly rounded corners. Forms are built from vertical stems and rounded-rectangle bowls, producing a tall, compact rhythm with consistent stroke weight and minimal contrast. Curves terminate cleanly, apertures are relatively open for the width, and many letters lean on flat sides and uniform radii, giving the design a modular, engineered feel. Lowercase echoes the same geometry with compact counters and simple joins, while numerals follow the same tall, clipped-round construction for a cohesive texture.
Well-suited to space-conscious settings such as UI labels, navigation, dashboards, and packaging where a compact footprint is helpful. It also works effectively for headlines, posters, and identity systems seeking a modern, engineered look with softened corners.
The overall tone feels contemporary and technical, with a disciplined, system-like personality. Its condensed stance and rounded-rect geometry suggest signage, interface typography, and industrial design cues rather than calligraphic warmth.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, highly consistent sans built from a small set of geometric rules. By combining condensed proportions with rounded-rect curves and uniform strokes, it aims for clarity and a contemporary, technical character across letters and figures.
The superellipse construction is especially apparent in round letters like O/C/G and in arches such as n/m, where curves read as rounded rectangles rather than true circles. The narrow proportions create a dense word image that stays orderly and even at larger sizes.
