A compact, monolinear sans with a tall, compressed stance and squared, superellipse-like bowls. Curves resolve into rounded-rectangle corners rather than true circles, giving counters a boxed feel and producing a crisp, modular rhythm. Terminals are mostly straight and blunt, with consistent stroke thickness and minimal modulation. The lowercase is built from simplified, structural forms—single-storey shapes and squared shoulders—creating a mechanical, grid-friendly texture in text.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and branding where a strong, condensed voice is needed. It also fits packaging, labels, wayfinding, and UI titles that benefit from a technical, space-efficient sans with clear, high-impact shapes.
The overall tone is industrial and technical, with a controlled, engineered personality. Its condensed geometry and squared curves evoke signage, machinery labels, and digital interfaces, projecting a no-nonsense, modern sensibility.
Likely designed to deliver maximum visual punch in a narrow footprint while keeping forms clean, consistent, and easy to systematize. The rounded-rectangle construction suggests an emphasis on modular geometry and a contemporary industrial aesthetic.
The design relies on tight apertures and rectangular counters, which helps maintain a strong silhouette at display sizes but can make dense passages feel compact. Numerals follow the same squared-curved logic, reinforcing a cohesive, system-like look across letters and figures.
