A compact, condensed sans with heavy strokes and subtly rounded, squared-off curves that give counters a superelliptical feel. Vertical stems dominate, with flat terminals and tight apertures that keep the rhythm dense and uniform. The lowercase is sturdy and simplified, with a single-storey “a” and “g,” and a short, robust “t” that reinforces the compressed, workmanlike texture. Numerals are thick and blocky, matching the letters’ narrow proportions and emphasizing high-impact shapes at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and short statements where compact width and strong presence are advantages. It also fits branding, packaging, and signage that need a condensed, high-impact sans with sturdy letterforms that hold up in bold applications.
The overall tone is forceful and no-nonsense, leaning industrial and sporty. Its compressed width and dark color create an urgent, attention-grabbing voice that feels modern, practical, and built for impact rather than delicacy.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum punch in limited horizontal space, combining condensed proportions with squared, softly rounded curves for a contemporary, engineered look. Its simplified lowercase and consistent weight suggest a focus on clarity and visual solidity in display-driven settings.
In longer sample lines, the tight spacing and narrow forms produce a strong, uninterrupted typographic bar, with clear emphasis on verticality. Rounded corners soften the heaviness slightly, preventing the design from feeling purely mechanical while still keeping it firmly in a bold, utilitarian register.
