A condensed, oblique sans with heavy strokes and softly rounded corners. Letterforms are built from simplified, segmented shapes with frequent small cut-ins and breaks that create a subtle stencil-like rhythm. Counters are tight and apertures are relatively closed, giving a compact, high-ink silhouette. The slant is consistent across caps and lowercase, and spacing feels tuned for continuous text while maintaining a mechanical, modular texture.
Best suited to short to medium-length display settings where its condensed width and distinctive cutout construction can read clearly—headlines, posters, branding marks, packaging callouts, and UI/overlay labels. It can work in larger text blocks for stylistic effect, but the tight counters and segmented forms favor generous sizes and comfortable line spacing.
The overall tone reads fast, engineered, and futuristic—like labeling on equipment, performance branding, or tech interfaces. The segmented detailing adds a covert, utilitarian edge, while the rounded terminals keep it from feeling overly sharp or aggressive.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, high-impact sans for contemporary display use, combining speed-oriented oblique proportions with industrial cutout detailing to create a strong, recognizable voice.
Distinctive ink-trap/cutout details appear in many glyphs, producing recognizable internal notches and occasional split strokes. Numerals follow the same condensed, oblique construction and maintain strong uniformity with the alphabet, supporting a cohesive display system.
