A condensed sans with monoline strokes and rounded-rectangle (superelliptical) construction throughout. Curves are squarish and softly cornered rather than fully circular, giving bowls and counters a compact, engineered feel. Terminals are clean and blunt, joins are smooth, and verticals dominate, creating a tall, tidy rhythm. Spacing and widths vary by glyph but remain disciplined, with open counters and simplified forms that keep the texture even in longer text.
Best suited to headlines, posters, packaging, and branding where a condensed, geometric voice helps fit more characters while staying legible. It also works well for signage, labels, and UI callouts that benefit from a clean, compact silhouette with softened corners.
The overall tone feels utilitarian and slightly retro, like mid-century signage or label lettering updated with softer corners. Its rounded geometry adds approachability, while the condensed proportions keep it efficient and no-nonsense. The result is both friendly and industrial, with a subtle playful edge.
The design appears intended to deliver a space-saving sans with a distinctive rounded-rect geometry, balancing functional clarity with a recognizable, retro-industrial personality. It aims to stay readable in text while offering enough shape character to stand out in display settings.
Distinctive superelliptical bowls and squared curves make the forms read as purpose-built rather than neutral. The tall lowercase with short ascenders/descenders supports dense line setting, and the numerals share the same compact, rounded-rect logic for a cohesive system.
