A compact, heavy sans with monoline strokes and tight proportions. Forms lean toward geometric construction with broad, rounded curves and flat, decisive terminals, creating dense counters and a strong, even color in text. Uppercase shapes are sturdy and slightly squared-off in their curves, while lowercase forms stay simple and highly legible with open apertures and minimal modulation. Numerals are bold and blocky, matching the typeface’s overall solid, compressed rhythm.
This font is well suited to headlines and display settings where compact width and strong stroke weight help maximize impact in limited space. It can work effectively for signage, packaging, and bold interface labels where quick recognition and a sturdy presence are priorities.
The tone is pragmatic and no-nonsense, with a contemporary, industrial feel. Its compact weight and restrained detailing convey firmness and clarity rather than elegance, making it read as assertive and functional.
The design appears intended to provide a space-efficient, high-impact sans that stays legible through simple geometry, large x-height presence, and consistent stroke weight. It prioritizes clarity and punchy density for display-driven typography.
Spacing appears relatively tight, which increases visual density and impact at larger sizes. Round letters maintain consistent curvature, and diagonals (such as in V, W, X, and Y) are blunt and confident, reinforcing the font’s robust, workmanlike character.
