A condensed display sans built from tall, straight-sided forms with rounded-rectangle curves. Strokes are predominantly uniform and heavy, with crisp terminals and tight interior counters that stay rectilinear rather than fully circular. Curved letters (C, G, O, Q) read as superelliptical capsules, while joins and shoulders in letters like n, m, h keep a squared, engineered rhythm. Numerals follow the same tall, compact construction, with the 0 as a vertical capsule and the 1 as a simple upright stem.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as headlines, posters, labels, and signage where a compact, industrial look is desirable. It can also work for branding and packaging that benefit from a structured, vintage-technical feel, especially when set with generous line spacing to avoid crowding.
The overall tone is assertive and utilitarian, with a retro-industrial flavor reminiscent of stenciled labeling and machine-era signage. Its compact width and rigid geometry give it a disciplined, no-nonsense voice that feels technical and slightly theatrical at larger sizes.
The design appears intended to translate superelliptical, rounded-rectangle geometry into a condensed display alphabet that reads clearly at large sizes while projecting a mechanical, engineered personality. Its disciplined construction prioritizes strong silhouette and vertical rhythm over softness or calligraphic nuance.
Uppercase forms are especially tall and columnar, creating strong vertical cadence in lines of text. The lowercase retains similar proportions and geometry, so mixed-case setting stays consistent and blocky rather than conversational. Spacing appears relatively tight, reinforcing a dense, headline-oriented texture.
