A tightly condensed sans with a tall, upright stance and rounded-rectangle construction throughout. Strokes are largely uniform with softened corners, producing superellipse-like bowls and counters in letters such as O, C, and D. Terminals tend to be square-cut and clean, with occasional small interior notches and compact joins that keep apertures narrow. Numerals follow the same condensed, squared-curved logic, maintaining consistent width and a disciplined, vertical rhythm across the set.
Best suited to headlines and short blocks where a compact footprint and strong vertical rhythm are desirable, such as posters, packaging, labels, and wayfinding. It can also work well in logo wordmarks that need a tall, streamlined silhouette, especially when set with generous tracking.
The overall tone feels industrial and technical, with a retro-signage flavor driven by its compressed proportions and rounded-rectangular geometry. Its crisp, engineered shapes read as purposeful and functional rather than expressive or handwritten.
The font appears intended to deliver a space-saving, high-impact sans that blends engineered clarity with rounded-rectangle styling. Its consistent, modular geometry suggests a focus on strong visual identity and dependable repetition across letters and numerals.
The design’s narrow apertures and compact counters emphasize a strong vertical cadence, which can look striking at display sizes. The rounded-corner treatment keeps the condensed forms from feeling overly harsh, balancing rigidity with a subtle softness.
