A compact, condensed display face with sturdy vertical stems and rounded-rectangle (superellipse-like) curves. Strokes are heavy and fairly even, with subtle contrast showing most in rounded letters and joints. Many terminals are squared or softly rounded, producing a tall, engineered silhouette; counters are tight, especially in letters like B, R, and a. The lowercase shows a single-storey a and g, a narrow, straight-sided n/m rhythm, and a compact, utilitarian texture; numerals follow the same tall, compressed proportions.
Best suited for headlines, posters, packaging, and brand marks where space is limited but a strong voice is needed. It can work for short subheads and labels at moderate sizes, while very small sizes may feel dense due to the compact counters and tight texture.
The overall tone is confident and slightly vintage, evoking poster-era lettering and industrial signage. Its dense, vertical rhythm feels direct and emphatic, with a controlled, engineered personality rather than a casual one.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a narrow footprint, combining tall proportions with rounded-rect geometry for a modernized retro feel. It prioritizes strong vertical presence and consistent, engineered curves for display-oriented settings.
In text lines, the tight internal space and condensed widths create a dark, continuous color, making it most effective where impact matters more than long-form comfort. The round letters maintain a consistent superelliptical geometry, helping the design feel cohesive despite the high density.
