A condensed, all-angular sans with monoline strokes and consistently sharp, chamfered terminals. Counters are boxy and often rectangular, with tight apertures and straight-sided bowls that emphasize a rigid, constructed feel. The lowercase is compact with a short x-height and tall ascenders/descenders, while diagonals (notably in K, V, W, X, Y) are steep and knife-like. Overall spacing reads tight and vertical, producing a dense rhythm and strong silhouette in words and lines.
Best suited to display applications where impact and atmosphere matter—headlines, posters, branding marks, packaging, and on-screen titles. It can work for short UI labels or navigational elements when set large enough to keep the tight counters and angular joins clear.
The letterforms project a hard-edged, mechanical tone that feels retro-futuristic and industrial. The sharp corners and narrow stance add urgency and intensity, giving text an assertive, poster-like presence rather than a conversational one.
The design appears intended to deliver a distinctive, constructed sans voice—prioritizing striking geometry, compact width, and sharp terminals to evoke a technical or industrial mood in prominent typography.
Distinctive details include squared-off curves, occasional notched joins, and pointed interior angles that create a stencil-like, cut-metal impression without obvious breaks. Numerals follow the same rectilinear logic and stay visually consistent with the caps, reinforcing the font’s compact, high-contrast silhouette at display sizes.
