A compact, heavy sans with squarish proportions softened by rounded-rectangle curves. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, producing strong, dark texture and tight counters. Uppercase forms are broad-shouldered and straightforward, while lowercase stays compact with a simple two-storey-style construction for some letters and a prominent, descending “g”. Curves tend to resolve into flattened bowls rather than perfect circles, and terminals are clean and blunt, reinforcing a dense, engineered rhythm across text.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and short emphatic statements where its condensed width and heavy color can carry impact. It also fits wayfinding and signage, labels, and packaging that benefit from a strong, compact sans. For longer text, it will work most comfortably at larger sizes with generous spacing to prevent counters from filling in.
The overall tone feels utilitarian and assertive, with a slightly retro, signage-like character. Its condensed heft reads as practical and no-nonsense, leaning toward technical or industrial communication rather than delicate editorial nuance.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence in limited horizontal space while maintaining a clean, modern sans structure. Its rounded-rectangle curve logic and blunt finishing suggest a goal of sturdy legibility and an industrial, display-forward personality.
Round characters (C, G, O, e, 0) emphasize a superelliptical, rounded-rectangle geometry, giving the face a distinctive squareness even in curved forms. The numerals are stout and highly legible at display sizes, and the heavy weight produces strong emphasis but can close up in small sizes due to tight counters.
