A condensed display sans built from tall, block-like strokes with subtly rounded corners and gently squared curves. The shapes lean toward superelliptical construction—round letters read as rounded rectangles rather than pure circles—while counters stay compact and vertical. Stroke endings are mostly blunt with small radiused terminals, producing a sturdy, poster-like texture and an even, upright rhythm across lines. Lowercase forms are simple and sturdy, with single-storey a and g, a narrow n/m structure, and a compact i/j that keeps the dotted forms tight and vertical.
Best suited to headlines and short bursts of text where vertical emphasis and strong presence are desirable, such as posters, signage, packaging callouts, and bold brand wordmarks. It can also work for subheads or labels when space is tight and a condensed silhouette helps fit more characters without losing impact.
The overall tone is bold and workmanlike, with a distinctly vintage, industrial feel. Its compressed proportions and softened corners give it a confident, approachable strength—more signage and packaging than corporate neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a narrow footprint, pairing sturdy, rectilinear construction with softened corners for a friendly but authoritative voice. Its consistent, engineered curves suggest a focus on reproducible, sign-ready forms that stay legible at display sizes.
Numerals follow the same tall, condensed logic, with rounded-rectangle bowls and tight apertures that keep figures visually dense. The family’s consistent corner radiusing helps unify straight-sided letters (E, F, H) and curved forms (O, Q, S) into a cohesive, engineered system.
