A condensed, heavy sans with geometric construction and rounded-rectangle (superellipse-like) bowls. Strokes are largely monolinear with subtle contrast coming from tapered joins and pointed, wedge-like terminals. Many letters combine soft curves with sharp cuts—flat tops, clipped corners, and triangular notches—creating a rhythmic, engineered texture. Counters are compact and often vertically oriented, and the overall silhouette stays tall and tightly set, giving words a strong, columnar presence.
Best suited to display use where strong vertical rhythm and high impact are needed—posters, headline systems, signage, branding marks, and packaging. It can work for short passages at larger sizes, but its tight counters and condensed proportions favor titles, labels, and UI accents over long-form reading.
The tone reads as industrial and machine-made with a clear Art Deco influence. It balances sleek modern geometry with chiseled details, producing a confident, poster-forward voice that feels both retro and technical.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, high-impact sans with superelliptical geometry and distinctive wedge terminals, evoking streamlined Deco styling while remaining clean and modern. The consistent narrow build and assertive stroke endings suggest a focus on clarity and personality in display settings.
Uppercase forms are especially architectural, with squared shoulders and controlled curvature, while lowercase maintains the same narrow stance and firm terminals for consistency. Numerals share the same condensed build and rounded corners, keeping a cohesive, display-centric color across mixed text.
