A compact, condensed sans with extremely tall proportions and heavy, mostly monolinear strokes. Curves resolve into squared-round, superellipse-like forms, giving bowls and counters a rounded-rectangle geometry rather than true circles. Terminals are generally blunt, with occasional tight notches and small apertures that create a stenciled, cut-in feel in letters like a, e, and s. The overall rhythm is strongly vertical and uniform, with tight internal space and prominent, narrow counters that keep the texture dark and highly assertive in lines of text.
Best suited for headlines and short display settings where maximum impact is needed in limited horizontal space, such as posters, storefront or wayfinding-style signage, and bold branding or packaging. It can also work for attention-grabbing subheads, but the tight counters and dense texture may feel heavy in long passages.
The tone is forceful and utilitarian, evoking industrial labeling and bold editorial headlines with a slightly retro display flavor. Its narrow width and dense color feel urgent and command attention, reading as confident and no-nonsense.
The design appears intended to deliver high-impact, space-efficient typography with a modernized squared-round construction. Its consistent vertical emphasis and compact counters suggest a focus on strong silhouette recognition and poster-grade presence rather than delicate detail.
Round letters (O, Q, G) keep a consistent squared-round construction, while joins and diagonals (K, R, X) stay crisp and compact. Numerals share the same condensed, blocky logic, maintaining a cohesive, sign-like appearance across mixed alphanumeric settings.
