A highly condensed, heavy sans with tall proportions and a compact horizontal footprint. Strokes are largely monolinear, with rounded-rectangle (superellipse-like) curves in bowls and counters that create a smooth, softened geometry. Many joins and terminals feel subtly rounded rather than sharp, while interior apertures stay narrow and vertically oriented, producing a strong, continuous vertical rhythm. Overall spacing is tight and the texture reads as dense and even, optimized for bold display settings.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and bold editorial callouts where height and impact are needed without consuming horizontal space. It also works well for branding and packaging that benefits from a strong condensed mark, and for signage or labels requiring quick, high-contrast recognition at larger sizes.
The font projects an assertive, no-nonsense tone with a distinctly industrial and retro display flavor. Its narrow stance and dark color give it urgency and authority, while the rounded corners keep it from feeling harsh, lending a streamlined, engineered character.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a condensed format, pairing a dense vertical rhythm with rounded-rectangle curves to maintain clarity and a distinctive geometric voice. It favors display readability and graphic presence over text comfort, offering a streamlined, engineered look for attention-driven typography.
Curved letters show a rounded-rectangle skeleton rather than circular construction, which emphasizes verticality and makes counters feel elongated. The numerals match the same condensed, blocky logic and appear designed to align visually with uppercase in signage-like compositions.
