A tall, tightly condensed display sans with monoline strokes and a consistent rightward slant. Forms are built from straight stems and chamfered corners, giving counters a squared, superellipse-like feel rather than fully round bowls. Terminals are mostly blunt and planar, with occasional hooked or notched joins that add a cut-metal, constructed rhythm. Spacing is compact and the overall texture is dense, emphasizing verticality and momentum in headlines.
Best suited for headlines, posters, logos, and short bursts of text where its condensed, engineered silhouette can carry the design. It works well in packaging, event graphics, and signage that aims for a technical or industrial look, especially when set with ample size and breathing room.
The font projects an industrial, mechanical attitude with a distinctly retro-technical flavor. Its sharp corners and narrow proportions feel utilitarian and engineered, while the slanted stance adds speed and urgency. The tone is confident and slightly aggressive, suited to graphics that want to read as tough, modern, or machine-made.
The design appears intended as an attention-grabbing condensed display face that translates a machine-cut, constructed aesthetic into a clean sans structure. Its slanted stance and chamfered geometry prioritize impact and character over neutrality, making it a strong choice for bold, graphic typography.
Curves are minimized in favor of faceted transitions, so letters like O/Q and the numerals read as rounded rectangles with crisp edges. The condensed width and dense spacing can amplify impact at larger sizes, but the angular detailing may require generous sizing to keep small text from feeling crowded.
