A tightly condensed, all-upright sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softly squared curves throughout. Strokes are heavy and fairly even, with subtle modulation that reads more as shaping than calligraphy. Counters are narrow and often vertically oriented, and many joins and terminals are blunt with rounded corners, producing a compact, columnar texture. Uppercase forms are tall and disciplined; lowercase shows a high x-height with short extenders, and the numerals follow the same narrow, upright rhythm for a unified set.
Best suited to headlines, posters, signage, packaging, and logo wordmarks where a tall, compact footprint and strong vertical rhythm are beneficial. It can also work for short subheads or labels where density and impact matter more than long-form comfort.
The overall tone is bold and utilitarian with a retro display flavor, like classic signage and headline typography. Its compact vertical emphasis feels efficient and emphatic, giving text an authoritative, slightly industrial voice without becoming harsh thanks to the softened corners.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence in minimal horizontal space, using rounded-rectilinear geometry to keep the tone sturdy and contemporary while referencing vintage condensed display styles.
Round letters lean toward squared bowls (notably in O/C/G) and many shapes feel engineered from repeated vertical stems and rounded rectangles. The condensed proportions create strong color and pronounced vertical rhythm, making small gaps and counters a key part of the look.
