A condensed monoline sans with a modular, rounded-rectangle construction. Strokes are consistent and corners are smoothly radiused, giving bowls and counters a squarish-superelliptic feel rather than true circles. Vertical stems dominate, with compact apertures and simple, open forms that keep letters crisp at display sizes. The overall rhythm is tight and tall, with clear differentiation between characters through distinctive terminals, angled joins, and neatly controlled curves.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and branding systems that benefit from a condensed footprint and a distinctive geometric flavor. It also works well for signage, packaging callouts, and UI labels where space is limited and a sleek, modern texture is desired.
The tone feels modern and engineered, balancing friendliness from the rounded geometry with a precise, utilitarian discipline. Its narrow proportions and streamlined shapes evoke a retro-futurist, signage-like voice that reads as contemporary and tech-forward without becoming playful or decorative.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, highly consistent sans built from rounded-rectilinear modules—prioritizing a strong silhouette, economical width, and a contemporary industrial character for display-driven typography.
Several glyphs emphasize a constructed look—arches and bowls often resolve into squared curves, and diagonals are used sparingly and cleanly. Numerals and lowercase maintain the same monoline logic, producing a consistent texture in mixed-case settings and short text blocks.
