A condensed sans with tall proportions, compact counters, and a strong vertical rhythm. Strokes are firm and even, with subtly rounded corners and oval-to-rounded-rectangle bowls that keep curves tight and controlled. The lowercase shows a single-storey a and g, short extenders relative to the height, and compact apertures that maintain density. Numerals are similarly narrow and sturdy, matching the compressed horizontal footprint and maintaining consistent weight across straight and curved forms.
Best suited to short-form display: headlines, posters, pull quotes, and branding where a compact width helps fit more characters per line without losing presence. It also works well for packaging and signage that need strong legibility at larger sizes and a bold, condensed texture.
The overall tone is assertive and contemporary, with a no-nonsense, industrial cleanliness. Its compressed stance and dark color give it a commanding, headline-forward voice that feels editorial and urban rather than playful or delicate.
Likely designed to deliver maximum impact in limited horizontal space while keeping a clean, modern sans profile. The rounded-rectangle curvature and tight apertures suggest an intention to balance sturdiness with a controlled, contemporary softness.
Spacing appears tight in text settings, reinforcing a stacked, poster-like texture. The design relies on straight-sided stems and restrained curves, producing a uniform, high-contrast-in-mass look (dark text color) without ornamental detailing.
