A tall, tightly set sans with a distinctly rounded-rectangle construction. Strokes are even and crisp, with soft, squared-off curves that keep bowls and counters narrow and vertically oriented. Round letters like O, C, and G read as superelliptic capsules, while straight-sided forms (H, N, U) emphasize a rigid, architectural rhythm. Lowercase forms follow the same narrow geometry, with compact apertures and simplified joins; numerals are similarly elongated and clean, with consistent stroke logic across the set.
Well-suited to headlines and compact typographic settings where horizontal space is limited, such as posters, packaging panels, and wayfinding. The uniform stroke weight and simplified forms also make it useful for UI labels, dashboards, and other display-like interface typography where a clean, engineered voice is desired.
The overall tone is clean and controlled, combining a utilitarian, technical feel with a subtle retro signage flavor. Its narrow, rounded geometry gives it a composed, streamlined presence that feels efficient and slightly futuristic without becoming playful.
The design appears intended to deliver an efficient, space-saving display sans built from rounded-rectangular primitives. Its consistent radii and monoline construction prioritize a cohesive, modern texture and a distinctive condensed silhouette for branding and titling.
The typeface maintains strong vertical emphasis and consistent corner radii, which creates a unified texture in lines of text. Several shapes rely on near-parallel stems and tight counters, producing a dense, high-contrast silhouette against the page even at modest sizes.
