A condensed display sans with pronounced stroke contrast and a distinctly vertical, sculpted rhythm. Counters are tight and often squared-off, with flat-sided curves and crisp, abrupt terminals that create a sturdy, engraved look. Uppercase forms are tall and compact, while lowercase maintains a moderate x-height with narrow apertures and strong vertical emphasis. Numerals follow the same compressed proportions, reading dark and solid at text sizes and especially assertive when set large.
Best suited to headlines, posters, mastheads, and branding where a compact, high-impact voice is needed. It can also work on packaging or signage when you want dense, attention-grabbing copy, especially in all-caps or short phrases.
The overall tone feels forceful and urban, with a slightly vintage, industrial edge. Its dense color and sharp transitions give it a dramatic, poster-like presence that can read as serious, cinematic, or noir-leaning depending on setting and spacing.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in minimal horizontal space, combining condensed proportions with contrasted strokes for drama and legibility at large sizes. Its controlled geometry and crisp finishing suggest a display-first approach aimed at strong typographic texture and presence.
The typeface produces a very dark typographic color and a strong vertical cadence, so line breaks and tracking will noticeably affect texture. In the sample text, the narrow widths and tight internal spaces create an impactful block that favors short-to-medium runs over airy, spacious compositions.
