A tall, compact sans with a distinctly rounded-rectangle construction: curves resolve into squared shoulders and softly radiused corners rather than true circles. Strokes are heavy and even, with tight internal counters and relatively closed apertures that create a dense, dark texture in text. Terminals are mostly flat and blunt, and many joins feel engineered and vertical, giving the forms a rigid, stacked rhythm. The numerals match the same narrow, upright structure, reading cleanly and consistently alongside the caps and lowercase.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and display settings where a compact width and strong presence are needed. It also fits wayfinding/signage, labels, and packaging where a dense, sturdy sans can carry impact in limited space. For longer passages, larger sizes and generous tracking will help maintain clarity.
The overall tone is pragmatic and forceful, with a no-nonsense, industrial flavor. Its condensed massing and squared-round geometry suggest signage and poster typography, leaning slightly retro while staying plainspoken and functional.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact and space efficiency through a condensed silhouette and squared, softened geometry. It prioritizes uniform stroke strength and a firm vertical stance to produce a consistent, high-contrast-in-size display voice without ornamental detail.
In running text the heavy color and compact spacing cues make it feel assertive; the tight counters and vertical emphasis favor short lines and larger sizes where the internal shapes can open up visually. The geometric consistency across capitals, lowercase, and figures gives it a cohesive, system-like presence.
