A highly condensed, monoline sans with rounded-rectangle (superellipse-like) curves and consistently narrow proportions. Strokes maintain an even thickness with minimal modulation, producing a crisp, graphic texture in text. Terminals are clean and mostly squared-off with softened corners, while curves (notably in C, G, O, Q and the lowercase bowls) read as vertical ovals rather than perfect circles. Counters are tight but open enough to preserve clarity, and the overall rhythm is tall and vertical, with compact sidebearings that create a dense, columnar feel.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, posters, and editorial settings where vertical economy and a strong typographic stripe are desirable. It also works well for branding and packaging systems that need a compact, modern voice and clear letterforms at display sizes.
The font conveys a contemporary, no-nonsense tone—efficient, structured, and slightly industrial. Its compressed stance and rounded geometry add a controlled friendliness without becoming playful, making it feel confident and urban rather than decorative.
The design appears intended to maximize impact and legibility in narrow measure, pairing a compressed silhouette with softened, superelliptical curves for a modern, systematic look. It prioritizes a consistent monoline color and tight spacing to build a strong, recognizable typographic texture.
The uppercase set appears especially architectural and space-efficient, while the lowercase maintains the same narrow cadence for strong consistency in mixed-case text. Numerals follow the same tall, condensed logic, supporting tightly set headlines and compact layouts.
