A compact, heavy sans with tall, condensed proportions and a distinctly block-built construction. Strokes are monolinear and weighty, with slightly rounded outer corners and frequent chamfered/angled terminals that give forms a cut, mechanical feel. Counters tend to be small and squarish, producing strong ink presence and high impact; several lowercase shapes echo the uppercase structure for a unified, poster-like texture. Overall spacing is tight and the rhythm is vertical and assertive, with occasional idiosyncrasies in curves and joins that keep the texture lively rather than purely geometric.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as posters, headlines, labels, and logo wordmarks, where its dense black shape and condensed stance can command attention. It can also work for signage or UI badges when used sparingly and at larger sizes to preserve interior openings.
The font reads as bold, retro display lettering with a playful, slightly rugged attitude. Its condensed blockiness and notched details evoke packaging, headlines, and signage where personality matters as much as clarity.
The letterforms appear designed to maximize visual punch in a narrow footprint, combining simple sans construction with angular cuts and compact counters to create a distinctive, vintage-leaning display voice.
The design maintains consistent stem strength while letting bowls and joints simplify into squared, compact counters, which helps it hold together at large sizes. Numerals follow the same chunky, condensed logic and feel aligned with the uppercase for headline use.
