A heavy, compact sans with squared proportions, flat terminals, and tightly enclosed counters. The letterforms are built from strong vertical stems and blocky curves, with occasional angular notches and cut-ins that give several glyphs a subtly stenciled, machined feel. Curves are squarish rather than round, apertures are minimal, and internal spaces are small, producing a dense, high-impact texture in text. Numerals match the same rigid geometry, with straight-sided forms and compact bowls.
Best suited to short, high-contrast display settings such as posters, headlines, brand marks, packaging titles, and bold signage. It can work for impactful subheads, but the dense interiors suggest avoiding very small sizes or overly long passages where counters may close up.
The overall tone is forceful and utilitarian, evoking signage, machinery, and bold display typography. Its hard edges and compressed rhythm read as no-nonsense and urban, with a mildly retro, factory-made character.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual weight in a compact footprint, using squared geometry and subtle cut-in details to create a distinctive, industrial-leaning display voice while remaining firmly sans in construction.
In longer lines, the tight counters and squared curves create a dark, continuous typographic color, while the occasional carved details add distinctive personality without introducing ornament. The punctuation shown (including the ampersand) follows the same block-built logic, keeping the system visually consistent.
