A compact, condensed sans with heavy, even strokes and a tall lowercase that keeps counters tight but legible. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, giving O/C/e-like forms a squared-off softness rather than pure circles. Terminals are blunt and clean, with minimal modulation and crisp joins that emphasize verticality; diagonals (V/W/Y) are steep and compact, and the overall rhythm reads dense and uniform in text.
Best suited for short, high-impact text such as headlines, posters, logos, packaging callouts, and wayfinding where space is limited and strong presence is needed. It can also work for subheads and UI labels when a condensed, emphatic voice is desired, but the dense color is less ideal for long reading at small sizes.
The tone is direct and forceful, with a pragmatic, no-nonsense feel. Its squared-rounded curves and compressed proportions evoke contemporary industrial branding and signage, balancing toughness with a controlled, refined finish.
Designed to deliver maximum impact in minimal horizontal space, with a geometric, rounded-rect framework that keeps forms sturdy and recognizable. The consistent stroke weight and compact spacing aim for a bold, contemporary texture that holds up in display applications.
Capitals feel monoline and tightly fit, while some letters show slightly different widths to preserve recognizable silhouettes at narrow proportions. Numerals follow the same compact, heavy construction and sit comfortably alongside the letters, reinforcing a consistent, mechanical texture in all-caps and mixed-case settings.
