This typeface is a tall, condensed sans with sturdy vertical stems and squared-off curves that feel drawn from rounded-rectangle geometry. Rounds like C, G, O, and Q read as superelliptical rather than fully circular, giving the design a crisp, engineered rhythm. Terminals are mostly flat and blunt, and the joins stay clean and controlled, creating a compact, even texture in words. Lowercase forms are straightforward and slightly closed, with a single-storey a and g, a compact e, and a narrow, high-shouldered n; numerals follow the same firm, upright construction.
It suits headlines, posters, packaging, and branding where a compact footprint and strong presence are needed. The condensed proportions make it useful for signage or layouts that must fit more characters per line while maintaining a solid, modern look.
The overall tone is contemporary and no-nonsense, with a confident, industrial clarity. Its condensed stance and squared curves suggest efficiency and control rather than friendliness, making it feel assertive and purposeful in display settings.
The design appears intended to deliver a space-efficient sans with an engineered, superelliptical construction that stays bold and legible at larger sizes. Its consistent strokes and blunt terminals prioritize impact, uniformity, and a contemporary voice.
In the sample text, the dense vertical rhythm and tight internal counters produce strong color and presence, especially in all-caps. The punctuation and diacritics appear clean and minimal, matching the utilitarian construction of the letterforms.
