A condensed, heavy sans with a tall, compact silhouette and uniform stroke weight. Curves resolve into squared, superellipse-like forms, giving bowls and counters a rounded-rectangle feel rather than fully circular geometry. Terminals are mostly flat and crisp, with tight inner counters and relatively closed apertures that keep the texture dense. Uppercase shapes read sturdy and rectilinear, while the lowercase follows the same squared-round construction with simple, utilitarian joins and minimal modulation.
Best suited to headlines and short bursts of text where a compact, high-impact voice is needed. It can work well for signage, packaging, and brand marks that benefit from a strong, space-efficient presence, and for UI labels or navigation where tight width is useful.
The overall tone is assertive and workmanlike, with an industrial, engineered flavor. Its compact rhythm and squared-round curves feel contemporary and functional, projecting clarity and strength rather than warmth or elegance.
Likely designed to deliver maximum presence in limited horizontal space while maintaining a clean, contemporary sans voice. The rounded-rectangle construction suggests an intention to blend mechanical sturdiness with softened corners for a modern, approachable edge.
The figures follow the same condensed, blocky construction and maintain consistent weight and spacing, supporting a uniform typographic color. The squared-round geometry is especially apparent in rounded letters and counters, which look like softened rectangles rather than true ovals.
