A condensed sans with monoline strokes and a compact, vertical rhythm. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle/superellipse shapes, giving counters and terminals a softly squared feel rather than purely circular geometry. Uppercase forms are tall and narrow with straight-sided bowls and controlled apertures, while lowercase maintains a high x-height and tight spacing with simple, efficient construction. Numerals follow the same condensed proportions, with rounded corners and uniform stroke weight that keeps texture even across lines.
Well suited to space-conscious display settings such as headlines, posters, and cover titling where a tall, compact presence is useful. The even stroke and simplified shapes also make it a good candidate for signage, packaging, and UI labels that need a clean, condensed voice.
The overall tone is functional and contemporary, with a subtly industrial edge created by the squared curves and narrow stance. It feels orderly and matter-of-fact—more about clarity and system than personality—while the softened corners keep it from looking harsh.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum legibility and presence in a narrow width, using superelliptic curves to keep forms consistent and contemporary. Its restrained detailing and uniform strokes suggest a goal of dependable performance in modern graphic and interface-oriented layouts.
The typeface reads best when set with some breathing room, as its narrow forms and dense verticals can create a strong dark texture in longer lines. Rounded joints and squared counters produce a consistent “tube-like” silhouette across letters and figures, reinforcing a cohesive, engineered look.
