A geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle and superellipse forms, combining tall proportions with softly squared curves. Strokes read mostly even but with crisp joints and occasional tapered terminals that sharpen the rhythm. Counters are narrow and vertically oriented, and many letters use flattened arcs and straight-sided bowls, giving the set an engineered, modular texture. The lowercase keeps compact, sturdy shapes with single-storey forms and short extenders, while figures echo the same rounded-rect geometry for a consistent, system-like look.
Best suited to display work where its tall, modular geometry can set a distinctive tone—headlines, poster typography, brand marks, packaging titles, and wayfinding or environmental signage. It can also work for short UI labels or editorial pull quotes when a retro-futurist, architectural voice is desired.
The font projects a strong Art Deco and early-modernist sensibility—streamlined, architectural, and slightly theatrical. Its squared curves and tall stance feel optimistic and mechanical, balancing elegance with a utilitarian, signage-like clarity.
The design appears intended to reinterpret superelliptical, Deco-inspired letterforms in a clean sans structure, prioritizing a consistent rounded-rectangle skeleton and a compact, vertical rhythm. The goal seems to be a distinctive display face that remains orderly and legible while delivering a period-forward, engineered character.
Round letters like O/Q and numerals such as 0/8 lean toward pill-shaped outlines with tight internal space, emphasizing a vertical, condensed rhythm. Terminals are generally clean and squared, with select curved strokes ending in subtle hooks or softened corners that keep the design from feeling purely rigid.
