A tall, condensed sans with monoline strokes and softly rounded terminals. Curves are smooth and elliptical, while straight stems stay rigid and vertical, producing a clean, columnar rhythm. Counters are relatively tight and the overall spacing feels compact, helping the forms read as dense blocks in words. Uppercase shapes are simple and geometric, and the lowercase follows a straightforward, modern construction with clear bowls and restrained joins.
This face is well suited to headlines, posters, and titling where vertical economy and strong presence are useful. It can also work effectively for signage, labels, and packaging systems that need compact wording and a straightforward, no-nonsense voice.
The overall tone is utilitarian and direct, with an industrial, signage-like confidence. Its condensed proportions and sturdy stroke presence give it a slightly retro, institutional feel while remaining neutral enough for contemporary use.
The design appears intended to provide a space-efficient sans with clear, sturdy letterforms and a consistent geometric rhythm. Its restrained detailing suggests a focus on pragmatic display typography that remains legible while projecting a firm, functional personality.
The figures and capitals maintain a consistent, controlled geometry, and round letters keep a slightly squared-off oval impression that reinforces the compact texture in text. The silhouette stays even across lines, with little ornamental character beyond the gentle rounding at corners and terminals.
