A compact, squared sans with rounded-corner construction and mostly monoline strokes. Counters and bowls are built from rounded rectangles, producing a consistent superellipse rhythm across letters and numerals. The uppercase is tall and compressed with flat terminals and minimal modulation, while the lowercase keeps simple, upright forms with single‑storey a and g and tightly controlled apertures. Overall spacing feels economical and vertical, emphasizing a sturdy, engineered silhouette.
Works well for short, high-impact text such as headlines, posters, logos, packaging callouts, and signage where a condensed, engineered look is desirable. The consistent stroke weight and squared-round geometry also suit interface labels and technical or sports-themed graphics when set at larger sizes.
The tone is functional and assertive, with a modern, equipment-label clarity that reads as technical and slightly futuristic. Its squared curves and tight proportions convey efficiency and toughness rather than warmth or calligraphic personality.
Likely designed to deliver a compact, space-efficient sans with a distinctive squared-round geometry that remains highly uniform across the character set. The emphasis appears to be on crisp, modern shapes and strong presence for display-oriented typography.
Round forms like O, Q, and 0 are distinctly boxy with softened corners, and many joins and terminals resolve into straight cuts that enhance a machined feel. The numerals follow the same squared logic, and the punctuation and diacritics shown in the sample keep a straightforward, no-nonsense presence that supports compact text blocks.
