A tall, tightly condensed sans with compact counters and rounded-rectangle (superellipse) shaping throughout. Strokes stay largely even, with subtly softened corners and occasional tapered joins that keep the forms from feeling purely mechanical. Capitals are narrow and vertical, while lowercase shows slightly more variety and a utilitarian, single-storey construction in places, maintaining a consistent, compact rhythm. Numerals follow the same condensed, upright pattern with simple, sturdy silhouettes geared toward clarity at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines and short bursts of text where a compact, high-impact presence is useful—posters, packaging, signage, and branding lockups. It can also work for subheads or pull quotes when you want a condensed voice with a slightly retro, rounded-geometry flavor.
The overall tone feels retro and energetic, with a poster-like confidence that reads as both pragmatic and a bit eccentric. Its narrow, upright stance and rounded geometry suggest mid-century signage and headline typography, delivering a direct, punchy voice without becoming ornamental.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence in minimal horizontal space, combining condensed proportions with rounded-rectangle forms for a distinctive, display-oriented texture. It prioritizes bold, legible silhouettes and a consistent vertical rhythm for attention-grabbing typography.
Spacing appears designed for dense setting: letters sit tightly with minimal lateral breathing room, creating strong vertical texture in lines of text. The rounded terminals and compressed proportions can make similar shapes converge visually at small sizes, while at larger sizes they produce a distinctive, rhythmic pattern.
