A compact, heavy sans with tall proportions and a tightly packed rhythm. Letterforms are built from rounded-rectangle geometry: straight vertical stems, squared curves, and softly radiused corners that keep the shapes sturdy rather than soft. Counters are narrow and often vertically oriented, with minimal stroke modulation and crisp terminals, producing a uniform, ink-trap-free silhouette that stays consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to high-impact display settings such as headlines, posters, storefront or wayfinding signage, and bold brand marks where space is limited. The dense forms and narrow counters make it most effective at larger sizes or in short bursts of text, especially when you want strong emphasis without ornamental detailing.
The overall tone is bold and commanding, with an industrial, poster-like confidence. Its condensed width and squared-round construction suggest utilitarian signage and vintage display typography, giving headlines an assertive, no-nonsense voice.
Designed to deliver maximum visual weight in a constrained width while keeping letterforms clean, geometric, and highly consistent. The rounded-rectangular construction appears intended to evoke a pragmatic, industrial feel and to hold up well in bold, attention-grabbing compositions.
Capitals read as tall and monolithic, while lowercase maintains a strong vertical emphasis that preserves density in text. Numerals match the same rounded-rectangular logic for a cohesive set, and punctuation appears designed to remain visible at large sizes without adding delicacy.
