A tall, tightly set sans with monoline strokes and rounded-rectangle curves that give bowls and terminals a softly squared feel. Proportions are strongly vertical, with compact apertures and clean, straight-sided stems that maintain an even rhythm across lines. Curves (notably in O/C/G and the lowercase bowls) stay controlled and superelliptical rather than fully circular, while joins and ends are subtly rounded to avoid sharp edges. Numerals and punctuation follow the same narrow, upright construction, keeping the overall color consistent in text.
Well suited to space-constrained headlines, subheads, and typographic layouts where a condensed footprint is needed. The controlled, rounded-square forms make it a good match for modern branding, packaging, and wayfinding/signage systems that benefit from a clean, architectural tone.
The overall tone is streamlined and contemporary, with an efficient, engineered character. Its condensed stance and rounded-square geometry read as modern and slightly retro-industrial, projecting clarity and restraint rather than warmth or ornament.
Likely drawn to deliver a condensed, space-efficient sans that remains visually distinctive through superelliptical curves and rounded terminals. The goal appears to be a crisp, contemporary texture with consistent stroke color and a disciplined, geometric rhythm.
The design’s identity comes from the combination of extreme verticality and softened corners, which keeps it feeling technical without becoming harsh. In longer samples the narrow width creates a dense, poster-like texture, while the even stroke weight supports consistent legibility at display and compact text settings.
