A condensed slab-serif with strong, blocky serifs and square-cut terminals throughout. Strokes stay largely even in weight, with crisp inside corners and a compact, vertical rhythm that keeps counters relatively tight but clear. The glyphs feel engineered and modular, mixing straight stems with rounded bowls that end decisively, and a generally squared-off finish on curves. Numerals and capitals maintain a consistent, sturdy presence, reading cleanly at display sizes with an assertive, compact footprint.
Best suited to headlines, posters, labels, and packaging where a compact width and emphatic slab detailing help text hold its ground. It can also work for short subheads or callouts in editorial layouts when you want a condensed, sturdy serif with clear, high-impact shapes.
The overall tone is pragmatic and punchy, leaning industrial and slightly retro. Its dense, upright posture and blunt slab details give it a no-nonsense, authoritative voice that feels at home in functional signage or bold editorial settings rather than delicate or lyrical typography.
The font appears designed to deliver compact, high-visibility typography with a robust slab-serif skeleton and crisp, squared terminals. It prioritizes structural clarity and a strong silhouette, aiming for an industrial, editorial character that remains legible while feeling bold and functional.
The design’s narrow proportions amplify verticality and make lines of text feel efficient and tightly packed. Rounded forms (like C/O-type shapes) are softened but still terminate with firm, squared endings, reinforcing a machined, built-from-parts impression.
