A tall, tightly condensed display sans with a rigid vertical rhythm and strongly simplified geometry. Strokes alternate between heavy vertical stems and much lighter horizontal connections, creating pronounced contrast and a chiseled, architectural feel. Curves are largely built from rounded-rectangle forms, with squared terminals and tight apertures that keep counters narrow and upright. Spacing reads compact and columnar, and the overall silhouette stays clean and controlled rather than calligraphic.
Best suited to large-size applications where its condensed width and strong contrast can work as a graphic feature—headlines, posters, signage, packaging titles, and brand marks. It can also add a distinctive, structured flavor to short subheads or labels, while extended small text may feel dense due to narrow counters and compact spacing.
The tone is assertive and industrial, with a vintage poster energy reminiscent of signage and headline typography. Its compressed proportions and stark light–dark pattern give it a confident, no-nonsense voice that can feel both utilitarian and stylized.
The design appears intended as a high-impact condensed display face that prioritizes verticality, compact footprint, and geometric consistency. Its rounded-rectilinear construction suggests an aim for a modernized retro signage look with clear, repeatable shapes across the alphabet and numerals.
Round letters like O and Q lean toward superelliptical shapes, and several capitals use restrained, minimal crossbars, reinforcing the vertical emphasis. Numerals follow the same tall, compressed construction, helping mixed letter/number settings stay visually uniform in headlines.
