A condensed, heavy sans with compact proportions and softly squared (superelliptical) curves. Strokes are thick and fairly uniform, with tight counters and short apertures that give the letters a dense, economical texture. Rounds like O/C/G read as rounded rectangles rather than pure circles, while verticals dominate and terminals end in blunt, clean cuts. The lowercase is sturdy and simple, with single-storey a and g and a small, compact dot on i/j; figures are bold and tightly fit, matching the overall narrow rhythm.
Best suited to headlines, short statements, and display typography where a compact, high-impact voice is needed. It works well for posters, labels and packaging, wayfinding and signage, and bold brand marks that benefit from a condensed footprint and sturdy shapes.
The overall tone is forceful and practical, leaning toward industrial and utilitarian signage. Its compressed width and heavy color convey urgency and impact, with a subtle retro, poster-like flavor driven by the rounded-rectangle geometry.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact in limited horizontal space while maintaining a clean, modern sans structure. The rounded-rectangle construction adds a distinctive, cohesive motif that keeps the weighty forms feeling controlled rather than purely blunt.
Spacing appears intentionally tight for maximum ink coverage and strong line presence, especially in all-caps. The narrow design and closed counters can build strong texture in paragraphs but will feel most comfortable at larger sizes where interior spaces remain clear.
