A condensed, tall sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softly flattened curves. Strokes are heavy with moderate contrast, and terminals tend to end in blunt, slightly rounded caps that keep the overall texture solid and dark. Counters are compact and vertical, and many joins are simplified into smooth, superellipse-like shapes, producing a steady rhythm with little calligraphic modulation. Numerals follow the same narrow, upright stance with compact bowls and firm, blocky proportions.
Best suited to posters, headlines, and short punchy copy where a condensed footprint is useful and strong presence is desired. It can work well for branding and packaging that wants a retro-industrial flavor, and for signage or labels that benefit from tall, compact letterforms.
The font projects a confident, mid-century display tone—bold and utilitarian, yet softened by rounded corners. Its narrow silhouette and dense color feel assertive and attention-grabbing, with a friendly retro warmth rather than a sharp, technical chill.
The design appears intended as a high-impact condensed display sans that blends sturdy, utilitarian shapes with softened superellipse rounding. The goal seems to be strong legibility at large sizes while delivering a distinctive vintage-leaning voice.
The narrow set width and tight internal counters make the face read best at larger sizes, where its rounded geometry and distinctive condensed proportions are most apparent. In longer lines, the dark overall color can build quickly, so extra tracking and generous line spacing can help maintain clarity.
