A tightly condensed sans with tall proportions and compact apertures, built from straight stems and rounded-rectangle curves. The strokes read largely even in color, with squared terminals softened by subtle rounding that keeps counters from feeling harsh. Round letters like O/C/G are more superelliptical than circular, while joins and shoulders stay crisp and vertical, producing a dense, vertical rhythm. Lowercase forms are small and efficient with a high x-height; punctuation and figures follow the same narrow, upright structure for consistent texture in lines of text.
Best suited to headlines and display sizes where vertical emphasis and space-saving width are valuable—posters, signage, packaging, and bold brand lockups. It can also work for short UI labels or navigation where condensed forms help fit text into narrow columns, while still maintaining a clear, consistent texture.
The overall tone is assertive and economical—clean, compressed, and slightly industrial. Its narrow stance and dark, even color create a confident, urgent voice that feels at home in pragmatic, no-nonsense communication.
The design appears intended to maximize impact and legibility in limited horizontal space, using a geometric, rounded-rectangle skeleton to keep forms consistent and sturdy. Its tall proportions and compact counters prioritize strong silhouette and dense line color for attention-grabbing typography.
Spacing appears tuned for a compact set width, creating strong vertical cadence in all-caps settings and tightly packed word shapes in mixed case. The rounded-rectangle construction is especially evident in the bowls and counters, lending a contemporary, engineered feel rather than a purely humanist one.
