A compact, tightly set sans with tall proportions and strongly condensed width. Strokes are heavy and fairly even, with subtle contrast showing most clearly in curved joins and the tapered ends of some diagonals. Curves read as rounded-rectangle forms rather than true circles, giving bowls and counters a squared, superelliptical feel. Terminals are mostly blunt and vertical, while letters like J, f, t, and y introduce small hooks and crisp interior cut-ins that add texture to the rhythm. Numerals follow the same compressed, sturdy construction with clear, high-impact silhouettes.
Best suited for headlines and short bursts of text where condensed width and strong presence are advantageous, such as posters, cover lines, branding marks, labels, and packaging. It can also work for pull quotes and navigational display in editorial layouts when a dense, commanding typographic color is desired.
The overall tone is forceful and utilitarian, with a contemporary industrial edge. Its condensed massing and squared-round curves create a confident, headline-forward voice that feels disciplined rather than playful. The texture is bold and compact, suggesting urgency and emphasis typical of posters, sports, or attention-grabbing editorial typography.
The design appears aimed at delivering maximum impact in minimal horizontal space, combining compact proportions with squared-round geometry for a modern, engineered look. Its mix of blunt terminals and selective hooked details suggests an intention to stay highly recognizable at display sizes while keeping a consistent, tightly packed rhythm.
The typeface maintains a consistent narrow cadence across capitals, lowercase, and figures, producing dense color in text. Round letters (like O, Q, C, G, e) retain a boxy interior geometry, and diagonals (V, W, X, y) appear sharper and more tapered at their extremes, increasing perceived crispness despite the heavy weight. Lowercase forms include distinctive hooks and ear-like details (notably in f and t) that help differentiate shapes in tight settings.
