A condensed geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle and superellipse-like forms. Strokes are consistently heavy with rounded terminals and corners, producing a soft but sturdy silhouette. Curves tend to square off rather than become fully circular, and counters are compact and vertically oriented, giving letters a tall, tightly packed rhythm. The overall spacing and proportions favor efficiency and legibility, with simplified joins and minimal contrast throughout.
This font performs best in display contexts where its compact width and heavy, rounded geometry can create strong impact—headlines, posters, logos, and packaging. It also suits wayfinding and interface or product labeling where a condensed footprint and sturdy shapes help maintain clarity at medium-to-large sizes.
The tone reads functional and engineered, with a subtle retro-futuristic flavor. Rounded corners keep it friendly, but the compressed width and squared curves make it feel disciplined and technical—well suited to systems, labels, and instrument-like typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a space-efficient, high-impact sans with softened corners and a systematized, rounded-rect construction. It aims to balance friendliness with a technical, industrial presence, offering a distinctive texture without relying on ornament.
Round letters such as O, C, and G take on a squared-oval profile, while diagonals (A, V, W, Y) are broad and blunt, reinforcing the robust texture. Numerals follow the same squarish geometry and look designed for quick recognition, especially in tight layouts.
