A condensed monoline sans with a modular, rounded-rectangle construction. Curves resolve into soft, squared corners, giving counters a superelliptical feel rather than true circles. Strokes are consistently even with minimal contrast, terminals are clean and often blunt, and many joins read as straight segments with controlled rounding. Proportions are tall and economical, with a relatively small x-height and generous vertical reach, producing a crisp, gridded rhythm in text.
It performs best in short-to-medium display settings where its condensed proportions and squared-rounded forms can read as intentional—headlines, interface labels, product naming, and signage-style applications. At larger sizes it highlights its superelliptical construction and clean rhythm, making it suitable for tech, sci‑fi, and modern editorial accents.
The overall tone feels futuristic and technical, with a disciplined, engineered neatness. Its rounded-squared geometry also carries a subtle retro digital flavor, suggesting interfaces, instrumentation, and streamlined industrial design.
The design appears aimed at combining strict, modular geometry with softened corners to maintain approachability. Its condensed stance and uniform stroke suggest an intention to maximize information density while keeping letterforms consistent and easily systematized across a set.
Distinctive shapes include the squared, rounded bowls in letters like O/Q and the open, rectangular apertures in forms such as a/e. The narrow set width and tall ascenders/descenders create pronounced vertical emphasis, while the consistent corner rounding keeps the texture friendly rather than harsh.
