A condensed sans with compact proportions and a tall, vertical silhouette. Strokes are consistently heavy with minimal contrast, and many curved letters resolve into squared-round, superellipse-like bowls and counters rather than perfect circles. Terminals are mostly flat and blunt, with occasional softly rounded corners that keep the texture from feeling sharp. Overall spacing is tight and the rhythm is dense, producing a strong, poster-friendly typographic color.
Performs best in short-to-medium display settings where density and impact matter: headlines, posters, signage, and bold UI or packaging callouts. It can also work for brief subheads and captions when a compact, assertive voice is needed and line length is controlled.
The tone is direct and functional, with an industrial, no-nonsense presence. Its condensed build and squared-round shaping give it a contemporary, engineered feel that reads as confident and authoritative rather than delicate or expressive.
Designed to deliver maximum presence in minimal horizontal space, with squared-round construction that keeps shapes clear and uniform. The intent appears to be a practical, contemporary display sans that stays legible and forceful in tight layouts.
Round letters such as C, O, Q and G show rounded-rectangle geometry, while straight-sided forms like E, F, H and N reinforce a rigid vertical cadence. Numerals match the same compact, sturdy construction, maintaining a consistent color in mixed text.
