A compact, monoline sans with narrow proportions and a tall x-height. Letterforms are built from squared curves and rounded-rectangle geometry, with softly radiused corners and largely uniform stroke widths. Counters tend toward rectangular and superelliptical shapes, terminals are blunt and clean, and the overall rhythm is tight and vertical. Lowercase shares the same constructed feel, with simple joins and minimal modulation; figures follow the same squared-round logic for a consistent texture in text.
Works well for UI labels, product interfaces, and wayfinding where compact width and clear, constructed shapes help conserve space. It also suits posters, packaging, and tech-forward branding that benefits from an industrial, retro-modern voice, especially at display sizes and short-to-medium text blocks.
The tone feels technical and utilitarian, with a subtle retro-futurist flavor reminiscent of labeling, control panels, and engineered signage. Its squared rounding reads efficient and modern rather than friendly, giving it a disciplined, industrial character.
The design appears intended to blend geometric efficiency with softened corners, creating a space-saving sans that reads clean and contemporary while maintaining a distinctive squared-round signature. Its consistent stroke behavior and modular curves suggest a focus on systematized letter construction for reliable, repeatable typography.
The narrow set width and tall lowercase produce a dense gray value, helping text feel compact while keeping forms open enough to remain legible. Rounded interior corners and softened outside corners reduce harshness without losing the engineered, modular impression.
