A compact, condensed sans with heavy vertical stems and rounded-rectangle construction throughout. Curves are built from softened corners and broad bowls rather than perfect circles, giving counters a squarish, superelliptical feel. Stroke endings are clean and mostly blunt, and the overall rhythm is strongly vertical with tight sidebearings and minimal interior space. Uppercase forms stay tall and narrow, while lowercase combines single-story shapes (notably a and g) with simple, sturdy joins and short, understated terminals.
Best used for headlines, posters, signage, packaging, and logo wordmarks where space is limited but high impact is needed. It also works well for short calls-to-action, labels, and any setting that benefits from a condensed, bold typographic voice.
The tone is bold and upbeat with a distinctly retro display flavor—confident, playful, and a bit theatrical. Its compact width and chunky shapes feel energetic and attention-seeking, suited to short, emphatic messages rather than quiet reading.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual weight in a narrow footprint, using rounded-rectangle geometry to keep the forms approachable while maintaining strong display presence.
The narrow proportions and reduced counters create dense word shapes, especially in rounded letters like O, B, and S, which read as compact blocks. Numerals follow the same condensed, rounded-rectangle logic, keeping a cohesive texture across mixed alphanumeric settings.
