A condensed, monoline sans with tall proportions and rounded-rectangle construction. Curves read as superelliptical rather than circular, producing squared bowls and softened corners throughout. Strokes maintain a consistent thickness with minimal modulation, and terminals are clean and flat, keeping counters tight but open enough for legibility. The lowercase shows a simple, sturdy build with a single-storey a and g, short crossbars, and compact apertures; numerals follow the same narrow, upright rhythm.
Well-suited to headlines and compact layouts where horizontal space is limited, such as posters, packaging, and promotional graphics. Its clear, sturdy forms also make it a practical option for UI labels, dashboards, and signage-style applications when set at medium to large sizes.
The overall tone is efficient and contemporary, with a compressed, space-saving presence that feels engineered rather than expressive. Rounded corners soften the strict geometry, giving it a friendly edge without losing its utilitarian clarity.
The design appears intended to deliver a space-efficient, modern sans with a geometric, rounded-rectangle skeleton. It prioritizes consistent stroke weight, crisp alignment, and a strong vertical rhythm for impactful, compact typography.
The font’s narrow set width and squared curves create a strong vertical cadence in text, with distinctive rounded-rectangle bowls in letters like O, D, and Q. The sample text suggests it remains readable at display sizes where its tight counters and condensed spacing become a stylistic feature.
