A compact slab-serif with tall, condensed proportions and a steady, mostly even stroke feel. Serifs are blunt and squared-off, with flat terminals that give the letterforms a sturdy, engineered silhouette. Counters are relatively tight and the overall rhythm is vertical and efficient, producing a dense texture in text. The shapes favor straight stems and firm joins, with a consistent, workmanlike geometry across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to short-to-medium text where a tight footprint and strong presence are useful—headlines, subheads, posters, packaging, and bold labeling systems. It can also work for tables, tickets, or product codes where condensed, slabbed forms help maintain clarity and a consistent industrial look.
The font conveys an industrial, practical tone—confident and straightforward rather than delicate. Its compressed stance and squared slabs evoke signage, clerical imprint, and mechanical labeling, giving text a slightly retro, utilitarian flavor.
Likely designed to deliver a space-saving slab-serif voice with strong structure and clear edges, balancing readability with a compact, impactful texture. The squared serifs and firm terminals suggest an emphasis on durability, uniformity, and confident display performance.
In paragraphs, the condensed width creates strong vertical striping and a dark, compact color, especially where squared serifs cluster at baseline and cap line. Numerals share the same blocky, squared finishing, supporting a cohesive appearance in mixed alphanumeric settings.
