This typeface is strongly condensed with tall proportions and compact letterfit, creating a tight vertical rhythm. Strokes are largely uniform with subtle contrast, and terminals are mostly blunt and square-cut, producing crisp edges. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, giving counters and bowls a controlled, superelliptical feel rather than fully circular forms. The lowercase shows a two-storey a and g, a narrow, straight-sided m and n, and a compact t with a short crossbar; numerals follow the same condensed, column-like construction.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, posters, and compact branding where a lot of characters must fit into limited horizontal space. It can also work for packaging and signage/wayfinding systems that benefit from a tall, condensed voice and strong vertical emphasis.
The overall tone is firm and efficient, with a no-nonsense, contemporary voice. Its compressed shapes and squared curves suggest an industrial, utilitarian sensibility, while the clean construction keeps it polished enough for editorial use.
The design appears intended to maximize impact and economy of space through a condensed skeleton and disciplined, squared-round construction. It aims for a modern, utilitarian texture that stays visually consistent across letters and figures while remaining highly legible at display sizes.
At larger sizes the design reads as sleek and architectural, but the tight apertures and dense spacing imply it will look best when given breathing room (slightly increased tracking) in longer settings. The distinctive superelliptical rounding helps maintain consistency across straight and curved forms, keeping the texture even despite the extreme width compression.
