A condensed, rectilinear sans with tall proportions and tightly controlled sidebearings. Strokes are predominantly vertical and uniform, with squared terminals and crisp inside corners that create a stamped, cut-from-plate feel. Curves are minimized and built from straight segments, giving rounds like O/C a narrow, squarish geometry. Counters are compact and often rectangular, while joins and notches (notably in E, F, S, and 2/3) are sharply stepped, reinforcing a rigid grid-based construction.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as posters, headlines, and display typography where its condensed footprint and rigid geometry can be a visual asset. It also fits industrial or retro-themed signage, packaging, and product labels where a technical, stenciled-adjacent mood is desired.
The overall tone is mechanical and industrial, with a strong retro-engineered flavor reminiscent of signage, labeling, and technical marking. Its strict geometry reads assertive and disciplined rather than friendly, projecting a utilitarian, no-nonsense voice.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum presence within a tight width, using a strict, modular construction to evoke engineered precision. Its stepped details and squared curves suggest an intention to feel robust and functional while still offering a distinctive, stylized voice.
The design’s narrow apertures and dense black shapes create strong vertical rhythm and a slightly compressed texture in running lines. Distinctive stepped forms in several glyphs add character and help prevent the face from feeling purely generic, but the compact counters suggest better performance at larger sizes than in small text.
