A condensed, geometric sans with a squared-round construction: curves resolve into softened corners and oval-like bowls that feel closer to rounded rectangles than pure circles. Strokes are sturdy and consistent with only subtle modulation, producing dense, dark word shapes. Counters are relatively tight and apertures run on the closed side, while terminals are clean and mostly flat, reinforcing a crisp, engineered rhythm. The overall spacing and proportions are compact, with tall capitals and streamlined lowercase that read efficiently in stacked lines.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and branding systems that need a compact footprint with high visual impact. It can also work for labels, packaging, and signage where vertical economy and a strong typographic silhouette are useful, especially in uppercase or short bursts of text.
The tone is modern and assertive, with an industrial clarity that feels practical rather than decorative. Its compact forms and emphatic weight give it a no-nonsense, headline-driven presence suited to contemporary branding and information-forward layouts.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary condensed sans with softened, squared geometry—combining the efficiency of narrow proportions with a friendly, rounded-rectangular skeleton. It aims for strong presence and clean reproducibility in modern graphic applications.
Round glyphs like O/Q and numerals show the superellipse-like rounding most clearly, creating a consistent family feel across letters and figures. The condensed width and dark color can build strong texture in paragraphs, but it visually prefers short lines and prominent sizes where its tight counters and compact spacing remain comfortable.
