A compact, tall sans with a straight-backed construction and subtly rounded corners that give curves a softened, superellipse-like feel. Strokes are low-contrast and mostly monolinear, with squared terminals and tight apertures that keep counters small and forms efficient. Proportions lean toward narrow capitals and similarly economical lowercase, producing a vertical rhythm and dense texture in lines of text. Numerals follow the same pragmatic geometry, reading clean and consistent alongside the letters.
Works well for signage, labels, and UI or product contexts where space is tight and clarity matters. Its condensed proportions and steady stroke make it suitable for short headlines, technical documentation, packaging panels, and information-dense layouts where a controlled, orderly texture is desirable.
The overall tone feels industrial and no-nonsense, with a slightly retro technical flavor reminiscent of labeling, stenciled systems, or equipment typography—clean rather than friendly, but not harsh due to the softened rounding. It communicates functionality and order, with a restrained personality that stays out of the way in information-heavy settings.
The design appears intended to deliver an efficient, space-saving sans with an engineered feel: simple geometry, restrained detailing, and softly squared curves that keep forms legible while maintaining a disciplined, utilitarian aesthetic.
Spacing appears designed for compact setting, with even sidebearings and a consistent, mechanical cadence across the alphabet. Round letters retain a boxy silhouette, and joins stay crisp, reinforcing the font’s systematic, engineered character.
