A tall, condensed display face with heavy strokes and compact sidebearings. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, producing superelliptical bowls and softened corners rather than true circular rounds. Terminals are predominantly squared-off with gentle rounding, and the overall drawing stays steady and upright with a clean, mechanical rhythm. Lowercase forms remain sturdy and simplified, with a single-storey “a” and a blunt, vertical feel that keeps counters relatively tight and the texture dense at text sizes.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and short emphatic copy where a compact footprint and strong presence are needed. It also fits branding applications such as sports identities, product packaging, and bold signage where tight letterforms help pack information into limited horizontal space.
The tone is bold and no-nonsense, leaning contemporary and utilitarian. Its condensed proportions and blocky shapes give it an energetic, headline-driven character that reads as confident and slightly industrial.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a condensed width while keeping forms clean and consistent. Its rounded-rectangle construction suggests a goal of blending modern, engineered geometry with approachable soft corners for versatile display use.
The narrow width amplifies verticality and makes the font feel space-efficient, especially in all-caps settings. Superelliptical curvature keeps the weighty forms from feeling harsh, adding a subtle friendliness while maintaining strong impact.
