A compact, condensed sans with heavy, even strokes and rounded-rectangle (superelliptical) construction. Curves are squared-off and softened at the corners, giving bowls and counters a boxy, engineered feel rather than a circular one. The proportions are tightly fit with short extenders and sturdy verticals; joins and terminals are clean and largely uniform, producing a dense, high-impact texture in lines of text.
Works best for headlines, posters, packaging, and signage where space is tight but impact is needed. It can also serve in branding and labels that benefit from a condensed, geometric voice, especially at medium-to-large sizes where the squared-round details stay clear.
The overall tone is forceful and practical, with a modern, industrial flavor. Its compact geometry reads as straightforward and no-nonsense, suited to designs that want clarity and punch over delicacy.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence in a compressed width while maintaining clean, geometric consistency. Its superelliptical curves and sturdy stems suggest a focus on contemporary display use with an engineered, space-efficient rhythm.
Uppercase forms lean toward narrow, sign-like silhouettes, while the lowercase keeps similarly compact shapes and minimal modulation. Numerals are similarly stout and legible, matching the squared-round rhythm of the letters for consistent color across mixed settings.
