A tall, tightly condensed sans with straight-sided construction and small planar breaks that replace round curves. Strokes stay visually even in thickness, with squared terminals and crisp corners that create a chiseled, segmented rhythm through bowls and joints. Counters are narrow and vertical, and many shapes lean on near-rectilinear geometry, producing a strong, stacked silhouette in capitals and a compact, utilitarian feel in lowercase and figures.
Best suited for headlines and display settings where its condensed width and sharp geometry can make a strong impact. It can work well for posters, signage, labels, and brand marks that benefit from a tall, space-saving voice with a technical edge; for longer text, it will generally perform better at larger sizes.
The overall tone is assertive and engineered, with a slightly retro, signage-like flavor. Its faceted joins add a crafted, machined character that reads as disciplined and no-nonsense rather than friendly or casual.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum presence in minimal horizontal space, combining condensed proportions with faceted detailing to evoke precision and structure. The consistent stroke weight and squared terminals aim for clarity and a strong, repeatable texture in display typography.
The design maintains a consistent narrow footprint across the set, emphasizing verticality and tight spacing in text. The faceting is subtle but persistent, giving letters like C/G/O/Q and the numerals a cut-metal impression while keeping the overall texture clean and uniform.
