A condensed monoline sans with rounded-rectangle construction and gently softened corners throughout. Strokes keep an even weight with minimal modulation, producing a crisp, wire-like texture and a light overall color on the page. Counters tend toward squarish superellipse shapes (notably in O, D, and 0), while straight stems and compact curves create a tight, vertical rhythm. The lowercase shows a tall x-height with short extenders, and apertures remain controlled and neat, contributing to a tidy, engineered feel in text.
Well suited to interface labels, navigation, and short-form editorial where a clean, space-saving sans is useful. It also works for modern branding systems, packaging, and posters that benefit from a light, refined texture and distinctive rounded-rect geometry, especially at medium-to-large sizes.
The tone is modern and pared back, with a sleek, technical calm rather than warmth or exuberance. Its narrow stance and rounded geometry read as contemporary and slightly futuristic, lending an efficient, design-forward voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a sleek, contemporary sans voice built from superellipse-like geometry—balancing strict vertical economy with softened corners for approachability. The consistent monoline stroke and narrow proportions suggest an emphasis on clarity and a modern, systems-oriented aesthetic.
Round forms stay close to rounded rectangles rather than true circles, giving the alphabet a distinctive squared softness. Diagonals (A, V, W, X, Y) are sharp and clean, contrasting with the softened terminals; punctuation and numerals match the same restrained, minimal construction for consistent texture.
