A tall, tightly set sans with monoline strokes and softened corners throughout. Curves read as rounded-rectangle forms rather than true circles, giving bowls and counters a compact, superelliptical feel. The rhythm is vertical and even, with long ascenders/descenders and simple, open constructions; joins and terminals stay smooth and restrained, avoiding sharp cuts. Numerals follow the same narrow, upright logic, keeping a consistent stroke and compact internal space.
Well suited for headlines, subheads, and display typography where vertical economy matters, such as posters, packaging panels, product labeling, and navigation/wayfinding systems. It can also work for concise UI labels and identity marks when space is limited, especially in all-caps or short mixed-case phrases.
The overall tone feels modern and pragmatic, with a slightly retro industrial flavor reminiscent of labeling and wayfinding. Its narrow stance and rounded geometry create a calm, controlled voice—efficient rather than expressive—while still feeling approachable due to the softened edges.
The design appears intended to deliver a space-saving, contemporary sans with a distinctive rounded-rectangle skeleton. It prioritizes consistent texture, straightforward letterforms, and a compact silhouette that stays legible and orderly in dense, modern layouts.
Because counters are relatively tight in many letters, the face reads strongest when given a bit of size or generous tracking. The uniform stroke and consistent corner treatment help maintain clarity across mixed-case settings and numeric strings.
