A condensed, monoline sans with tall proportions and compact sidebearings. Strokes are largely uniform with softly squared, superelliptical curves that give bowls and counters a rounded-rectangle feel. Terminals are clean and mostly flat, with minimal flare, producing a crisp, engineered rhythm. The lowercase shows a single-storey a and g and generally tight apertures, while numerals are straightforward and narrow, matching the typeface’s compact, vertical emphasis.
Well-suited to space-constrained settings where you need a lot of characters per line, such as headlines, subheads, posters, and packaging panels. It can also work for signage and interface labels where a compact, orderly sans is desired, especially at sizes where its simplified, uniform strokes stay clear.
The overall tone is pragmatic and contemporary, with a slightly industrial efficiency. Its tight, upright stance feels purposeful and space-saving, leaning more toward editorial utility than expressive display.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, modern sans optimized for efficiency and consistent texture. Its superelliptical rounding and restrained detailing suggest a focus on clarity and a contemporary, system-friendly aesthetic rather than ornamental personality.
The condensed width creates strong vertical texture in paragraphs and headlines, and the rounded-rectangle geometry keeps the shapes from feeling harsh despite the tight fit. Joins and curves stay controlled and consistent, reinforcing a structured, no-nonsense voice.
