A condensed sans with a rounded-rectangle construction and consistently softened corners. Strokes are heavy and even, with minimal modulation and mostly closed apertures that create compact counters. Curves resolve into squarish bowls and U-shaped arches, while terminals are blunt and rounded rather than sharply cut. The overall rhythm is tight and vertical, with short crossbars and compact spacing that keeps words dense and graphic.
Works best in short to medium-length display settings where density and impact are desirable: posters, headlines, packaging, badges, and signage. Its compact width and uniform stroke make it useful for space-constrained titles and bold typographic layouts, while mixed-case text remains cohesive for subheads and taglines.
The rounded, squared-off geometry gives a friendly-but-machined tone—part retro signage, part utilitarian display. It feels confident and attention-getting without becoming harsh, thanks to the softened corners and uniform stroke weight. The condensed proportions add urgency and punch suited to headlines and labels.
The design appears intended to combine space-efficient condensation with a softened geometric voice, translating rounded-rectangle forms into a sturdy, highly legible display texture. The consistent weight and simplified shapes suggest a focus on reproducible, sign-friendly letterforms that stay distinctive at larger sizes.
Uppercase forms show tall, narrow silhouettes with simplified construction, and several letters lean toward geometric, modular shapes (notably the arched M/N and rounded-rect O). The lowercase retains the same blocky softness, helping maintain a consistent texture in mixed-case settings. Numerals follow the same superelliptical logic, reading clearly at display sizes.
