A condensed sans with heavy, even stroke weight and a distinctly superelliptical construction: curves resolve into rounded-rectangle bowls rather than true circles. Corners are softened but not airy, giving forms a squared-off, compact feel. Terminals are mostly blunt and flat, and counters stay relatively tight, creating dense black shapes with crisp internal negative space. Proportions are tall and economical, with straight-sided verticals and restrained curvature that keeps the overall rhythm orderly in text.
Well suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, labels, and brand marks where a compact footprint and strong presence are useful. It can also work for UI titling or navigation in space-constrained layouts, while longer text may feel dense due to the narrow set and heavy color.
The tone is direct and contemporary, with a no-nonsense, industrial clarity. Its rounded-square geometry adds a subtle tech flavor while the compact width and strong weight read as confident and attention-forward rather than friendly or playful.
The design appears aimed at delivering a compact, high-contrast-less (even-weight) sans optimized for impactful display use, using superelliptical, rounded-square forms to signal modernity and engineered precision without resorting to sharp corners.
Round letters like O/Q show a vertically emphasized, pill-like silhouette with flattened sides, reinforcing the condensed, engineered look. Diacritics and punctuation aren’t shown, but the sample text indicates consistent spacing and steady texture across mixed case and numerals.
