A compact sans with tall proportions and tight widths, built from straight strokes and softly rounded corners. Curves tend to resolve into rounded-rectangle shapes, giving bowls and counters a squarish, superelliptical feel rather than purely circular forms. Strokes read as consistently heavy with minimal modulation, and terminals are blunt with rounded edges. The overall rhythm is dense and vertical, with simple, open constructions that stay crisp at display sizes.
Well suited to headlines, posters, and signage where a condensed footprint and strong presence are useful. It can also work for packaging and logo wordmarks that want a compact, industrial-modern voice. In longer paragraphs it will read best at larger sizes where the dense vertical rhythm has room to breathe.
The tone feels industrial and workmanlike, with a contemporary condensed punch and a hint of retro signage character. Its rounded corners keep the voice friendly enough, while the narrow stance and sturdy strokes maintain a confident, no-nonsense presence.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a narrow measure while staying clean and highly legible. The superelliptical, rounded-rectangle construction suggests a goal of combining a technical, modular feel with softened edges for approachability.
Round letters like O/Q and the numerals lean toward pill-shaped geometry, while diagonals (A, V, W, X) stay clean and sharply directed. The lowercase maintains a compact, functional look with straightforward joins and minimal decorative detail, helping the design feel consistent across mixed-case text.
