A compact, condensed sans with straight-sided forms softened by superelliptic curves and rounded-rectangle bowls. Strokes stay visually even, producing a solid, monolithic texture, while counters are fairly tight and vertically oriented. Curves tend to be squared-off rather than circular, and terminals are clean and blunt, giving the alphabet a crisp, engineered rhythm. The uppercase reads tall and efficient; the lowercase repeats the same narrow, upright structure with simple, sturdy joins, and the numerals follow the same condensed, blocky logic for consistent color in text.
Best suited for headlines, short blocks of copy, and display settings where a dense, space-saving sans is helpful. It should work especially well in posters, labels, packaging, and wayfinding-style typography where strong presence and compact width are priorities.
The overall tone is utilitarian and contemporary, with a confident, sign-like presence. Its compact proportions and squared curves suggest a technical, industrial sensibility—direct, organized, and slightly sporty—rather than warm or calligraphic.
The font appears intended to provide a space-efficient, high-impact sans that remains clean and systematic. Its squared curves and consistent stroke treatment point to a design goal of modern practicality—delivering strong legibility and a controlled, industrial aesthetic in display and branding contexts.
The design leans on verticality: many letters feel built from straight stems and squared bowls, which keeps word shapes tight and uniform. The superelliptic rounding helps soften the density without becoming playful, maintaining a disciplined, mechanical feel.
