A compact, condensed sans with heavy, even stroke weight and a largely geometric construction. Curves are smooth and round, while joins and terminals are clean and matter-of-fact, producing a crisp silhouette at both display and text sizes. The lowercase shows a tall x-height with short ascenders and descenders, and the overall rhythm is tight with efficient spacing and sturdy counters. Figures are simple and robust, matching the letterforms’ straight-sided, high-impact proportions.
Well suited to headlines and short blocks where space is limited and impact is needed, such as posters, signage, packaging callouts, and brand wordmarks. It can also work for subheads and UI labels when a compact, high-visibility sans is desired.
The tone is direct and modern, with a pragmatic, no-nonsense voice. Its condensed build and heavy color give it a confident, attention-forward feel that reads as contemporary and functional rather than playful or decorative.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum clarity and emphasis in a narrow footprint, combining geometric shaping with a dense, even typographic color. It prioritizes straightforward legibility and a contemporary, utilitarian presence for display-led applications.
Round letters like O/C/G lean toward near-circular forms, while verticals dominate the texture, reinforcing a strong, poster-friendly typographic color. The lowercase ‘a’ appears single-storey, supporting a simplified, geometric impression across the set.
