A compact, heavy sans with tightly condensed proportions and a distinctly squared, rounded-rectangle construction. Strokes are monoline and dense, with small, rectangular counters and minimal internal space that creates a strong, dark text color. Curves resolve into softened corners rather than true rounds, and terminals are blunt and uniform. The rhythm is vertical and rigid, with simplified joins and closed apertures that emphasize solidity and consistency across letters and numerals.
Well suited to posters, headlines, and hero text where impact and compact width are priorities. It also fits packaging, signage, and branding marks that benefit from a sturdy, engineered feel. In longer passages or small UI text, the dense counters and compressed forms are likely to feel heavy and crowded.
The overall tone is forceful and utilitarian, evoking industrial labeling and retro display typography. Its compressed stance and boxy geometry feel mechanical and authoritative, with a slightly vintage, poster-like punch that reads as bold and uncompromising.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual weight within a narrow footprint while maintaining a consistent, rounded-rectangular silhouette. Its simplified, monoline construction suggests an emphasis on bold display presence and a coherent, industrial geometric style rather than delicate detail.
Because counters are tight and apertures are conservative, legibility can drop as sizes get smaller; it performs best when given room and used at display sizes. The numerals follow the same condensed, block-built logic, keeping an even, uniform texture in headlines and short lines.
