A condensed sans with tall proportions and a steady, even stroke throughout. Letterforms are built from rounded-rectangle geometry: curves resolve into squared-off bowls and softly radiused corners rather than true circles, giving the font a crisp, engineered look. Counters are narrow and vertical, terminals tend to end bluntly, and diagonals (as in V/W/X/Y) are straight and tightly drawn, producing a compact rhythm. Lowercase forms stay simple and narrow, with single-storey shapes where applicable and minimal contrast between curved and straight segments.
Well suited to headlines, posters, and branding where a narrow footprint is useful and a strong vertical presence is desired. It can also work for signage, packaging, and labels that benefit from compact width and a clean, constructed aesthetic, especially at medium-to-large sizes.
The overall tone is efficient and no-nonsense, with a contemporary, infrastructural feel. Its compressed, tall silhouettes read as space-saving and assertive, suggesting signage, labeling, and modern display typography rather than expressive or calligraphic uses.
The design appears intended to deliver a space-efficient, high-impact sans built from rounded-rectangular forms, balancing strict geometry with softened corners. The goal seems to be a modern, functional voice that stays visually consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
The superelliptical rounding keeps the texture from feeling harsh despite the squared construction, and the tight apertures/counters create a dense color that becomes more striking at larger sizes. Numerals follow the same tall, compact logic, matching the uppercase well for cohesive titling.
