A condensed sans with tall, linear proportions and a consistent stroke weight. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, giving bowls and counters a squarish, superelliptical feel rather than circular forms. Terminals are clean and mostly flat, with softened corners throughout; joins stay crisp and the overall texture is even and vertical. Numerals and capitals share the same narrow footprint, producing a tight, columnar rhythm that reads strongly in stacked lines.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, and short blocks where a compact, high-impact voice is needed. It works well on posters, packaging, and signage that benefit from tight horizontal economy and a clean, engineered look. In longer passages it can be used for punchy editorial callouts or narrow-column layouts where density is a design goal.
The overall tone is functional and assertive, balancing a contemporary, technical feel with a slightly retro display sensibility. The rounded-square construction adds a controlled friendliness without losing its no-nonsense, poster-ready presence.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in minimal width, pairing a strong condensed silhouette with rounded-rectangle construction for a distinctive, modern display tone. It aims for clarity and consistency at larger sizes while maintaining a disciplined, grid-friendly rhythm.
The condensed width and uniform stroke make the font visually efficient, while the rounded corners keep it from feeling harsh. In text settings it creates a strong vertical cadence and a compact word shape, with counters that remain legible despite the narrow forms.
