A compact, condensed sans with monoline construction and squared-off curves that read like rounded rectangles. Counters are small and apertures tend toward closed, creating a taut, efficient rhythm in text. Terminals are clean and flat, with subtly softened corners that keep the geometry from feeling harsh. Uppercase forms are tall and narrow, while the lowercase maintains a practical, straightforward structure with restrained bowls and minimal modulation.
This font suits interfaces, dashboards, and product labeling where space is limited and a crisp, condensed voice is useful. It also works well for headlines, posters, and signage that benefit from a modern, compact texture and consistent stroke color.
The overall tone is modern and utilitarian, with a slightly engineered feel from its superelliptical round forms and tight proportions. It communicates clarity and efficiency rather than warmth or expressiveness, making it feel contemporary and matter-of-fact.
The design appears intended to deliver a space-saving sans with a controlled, geometric character, using rounded-rectangle curves and uniform strokes to keep lines of text orderly and visually consistent across letters and figures.
Round letters such as O, C, and G appear squarish in their curvature, reinforcing a geometric, system-like texture. The numerals follow the same condensed, monoline logic, keeping figures visually consistent with the text and well-suited to tight layouts.
