A compact, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners. Strokes are thick and relatively even, creating a dense, poster-like color while maintaining clear counters and simple apertures. Curves read as superelliptical rather than fully circular, and joins/terminals stay blunt and squared-off, reinforcing a sturdy, engineered rhythm. The overall spacing is tight and efficient, with a consistent, upright stance across capitals, lowercase, and figures.
Well suited for bold headlines, short subheads, and high-impact display settings where space is limited. It performs especially well on posters, packaging, wayfinding/signage, and branding systems that need a compact, sturdy voice and consistent alphanumeric presence.
The tone is forceful and practical—more workmanlike than playful—suggesting signage, equipment labeling, and no-nonsense headlines. Its rounded corners temper the aggression of the weight, giving it a contemporary, approachable industrial feel.
Likely designed to deliver maximum punch in a narrow footprint while staying legible and visually controlled. The rounded-rectangle geometry and blunt terminals suggest an intention toward modern, functional communication with an industrial edge.
The numerals and punctuation match the same squared, rounded-corner logic, keeping texture consistent in mixed alphanumeric settings. In text, the condensed proportions produce strong vertical emphasis and a compact word shape, making it best when you want impact without taking much horizontal space.
