A heavy, condensed sans with squared, superellipse-influenced rounds and consistently blunt terminals. Strokes are uniform and compact, producing dense vertical rhythm and strong rectangular silhouettes. Curves in letters like C, G, O, and Q are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, while joins remain crisp and mechanical. Counters are tight and often rectangular, with some uppercase forms (notably B and D) showing narrow, slot-like interior openings that emphasize the font’s engineered, modular feel.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, branding marks, packaging fronts, and wayfinding or labeling where space is limited. It performs well when set large, where its compact forms and squared rounds remain legible and visually distinctive.
The overall tone is forceful and functional, with a confident, no-nonsense presence. Its condensed heft reads as sporty and industrial—more about impact and clarity than refinement—evoking labeling, equipment markings, and bold display systems.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact in a condensed footprint, using rounded-rectangle construction to keep forms sturdy and consistent. It prioritizes bold presence, strong rhythm, and a technical, modular look suitable for modern display typography.
The narrow proportions and tight apertures create high ink density, making the type look especially solid at display sizes. Numerals follow the same squared-rounded construction, maintaining a consistent, compact texture across mixed alphanumeric settings.
