A condensed monoline sans with softly squared curves and superellipse-like bowls that read as rounded rectangles rather than true circles. Strokes are consistently weighted with smooth, mostly uniform terminals, and counters tend toward tall, narrow ovals with generous rounding. The overall build is vertical and compact, with tight apertures and simplified geometry that keeps letterforms clean and schematic. Distinctive shapes include arched, single-stem capitals (notably the rounded-shoulder A and M/N forms), a narrow O/0 construction, and numerals that follow the same rounded-rectilinear logic for a cohesive set.
Works well for interface labels, wayfinding, and compact editorial headlines where a tall, efficient footprint is useful. The smooth monoline build and rounded geometry also suit contemporary branding, packaging, and poster typography, especially when a clean, slightly futuristic voice is desired.
The tone is clean and contemporary with a soft-tech character—precise and engineered, yet approachable due to the rounded corners. Its condensed rhythm and simplified forms lend a mildly retro-futurist feel reminiscent of signage, UI labeling, and instrument markings.
The design appears aimed at delivering a compact geometric sans that emphasizes rounded-rectilinear construction for a cohesive, modern system. By keeping strokes uniform and forms simplified, it prioritizes clarity, consistency, and a distinctive superellipse-based silhouette that holds together across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
In text, the narrow set creates an efficient, space-saving texture with a steady vertical cadence. The rounded-rectangle construction is especially evident in bowls and arches, giving a unified “capsule” motif across letters and numbers; this makes the font feel systematic and intentional, particularly at larger sizes where the geometry is most apparent.
