A compact, vertically oriented sans with monoline strokes and rounded-rectangle curves that give counters and terminals a softened, superelliptical feel. The design keeps straight stems dominant, with tight apertures and narrow sidebearings that create a dense, efficient rhythm in text. Round letters like O and C read as tall, rounded forms rather than circles, while joins and terminals stay clean and minimally articulated for a consistent, engineered look.
This font is well suited to situations where horizontal space is limited and a crisp, contemporary voice is needed—such as headlines, posters, packaging, and wayfinding or label-style signage. It can also work for UI labels and compact interface typography where consistent, monoline construction helps maintain clarity at small sizes.
The overall tone is pragmatic and contemporary, leaning toward a functional, space-saving aesthetic. Its tall, condensed presence and softened corners evoke industrial labeling and modern UI typography rather than expressive or calligraphic voices.
The design appears intended to deliver a space-efficient sans with a controlled, systematic geometry, using rounded-rectangle curves to soften an otherwise strict condensed skeleton. It prioritizes consistency and legibility in dense settings, aiming for a modern, utilitarian typographic texture.
The sample text shows strong vertical emphasis and a steady, even color, with compact word shapes and little flourish. Numerals follow the same rounded-rect geometry, supporting a unified typographic system for mixed text and data.
