A condensed, geometric sans with sharp corners, squared curves, and a distinctly constructed, stencil-like logic. Many rounded forms are rendered as rounded-rect ovals with flattened sides, while joins stay crisp and verticals dominate. Stroke contrast shows up as heavier stems paired with thinner crossbars and interior cuts, producing a rigid, engineered rhythm. Counters are tight and rectangular, terminals are mostly flat, and several letters use stepped or notched details that emphasize a modular, mechanical build.
Best suited to display settings where compact width and graphic structure are assets: headlines, posters, logotypes, product packaging, and environmental or wayfinding-style signage. It can also work for short UI labels or technical interfaces when used at comfortable sizes and with generous tracking.
The overall tone is disciplined and industrial, with a techno/architectural flavor that feels purposeful rather than friendly. Its compressed proportions and hard edges give it a commanding, signage-like presence, while the sharp notches and squared bowls add a retro-futurist edge.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, high-impact sans that reads as engineered and modern, combining condensed proportions with constructed, angular details. Its contrast and squared geometry suggest an aim toward bold display presence with a technical, industrial character.
In text, the narrow set and tight counters create strong vertical striping and high graphic impact, especially in uppercase. Distinctive forms—such as the squared bowls, angular diagonals, and a compact, constructed lowercase—prioritize style and presence over softness, so spacing and size choices will matter for readability.
