A tightly condensed sans with monoline strokes and rounded-rectangle counters that give curves a squarish, superelliptical feel. Vertical stems dominate, terminals are mostly flat, and joins stay crisp, producing a clean, engineered texture. Bowls and apertures are compact and controlled, with a high, roomy x-height and minimal overshoot that keeps lines looking orderly at large sizes. Numerals follow the same narrow, upright construction for a consistent, space-efficient rhythm.
Best suited to space-constrained display work such as headlines, posters, signage, and packaging where a strong condensed presence is needed. It also works well for labels and short UI or dashboard headings where compact width and consistent texture help maximize information density.
The overall tone is assertive and practical, with a streamlined, industrial character. Its compact proportions and disciplined geometry convey efficiency and modernity rather than friendliness or nostalgia.
The design appears intended to deliver a tall, space-saving sans optimized for impact and efficiency, using rounded-rectangular forms to keep counters stable and legible while preserving a strict, modern rhythm.
In text, the condensed widths create strong vertical striping and dense word shapes, especially in all-caps settings. The rounded-rectangle construction helps maintain clarity in tight spaces, while the uniform stroke weight keeps the color even across long lines.
