A compact, tightly set sans with monoline strokes and strongly condensed proportions. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle (superellipse) geometry, giving bowls and counters a squared-off softness rather than true circularity. Vertical stems dominate, terminals are clean and blunt, and joins stay crisp, producing a steady, high-impact rhythm. The lowercase is tall and narrow with short extenders, while the figures follow the same condensed, upright construction for a uniform texture in text and numerals.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and short bursts of copy where a dense, impactful texture is an advantage. It can work well for branding, packaging, signage, and interface labels when space is limited and the design calls for a strong, condensed voice.
The overall tone is forceful and no-nonsense, with an industrial clarity that reads as modernist and slightly retro. Its compressed width and blocky rounding create a poster-like urgency, suitable for attention-grabbing statements without feeling decorative.
The design appears intended to maximize impact and economy of space, using a consistent monoline skeleton and superelliptical rounding to keep forms stable and legible in compressed settings. It aims for a functional, display-forward sans that stays visually unified across letters and numerals.
Round characters such as O/C/G and the digit forms show the superelliptical squaring of curves, which helps maintain consistent stroke presence in tight widths. The compact apertures and narrow internal counters increase density, so generous tracking and strong size contrast can help in longer lines.
