A compact, heavy sans with tightly proportioned capitals and a large, sturdy lowercase. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, and curves resolve into rounded-rectangle (superellipse-like) counters rather than circular bowls. Terminals are mostly flat and abrupt, while joins stay clean and geometric, giving letters a blocky, engineered silhouette. Spacing appears straightforward and workmanlike, with a dense overall color in text.
Best suited to headlines, short text blocks, labels, and signage where a dense, high-impact voice is needed. It can also work well for packaging, wayfinding, and brand systems that favor compact typography and strong tonal presence.
The tone is direct and no-nonsense, projecting strength and efficiency more than warmth or elegance. Its compressed, punchy shapes feel industrial and contemporary, with an at-a-glance clarity that reads as confident and slightly aggressive.
This design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in limited horizontal space while keeping forms simple and robust. The rounded-rectangle construction suggests a deliberate move toward a contemporary, engineered geometry that stays legible and consistent across letters and numerals.
Round letters like O/Q and the bowls in B/P/R show squarish, rounded counters that reinforce the font’s superelliptical construction. The lowercase maintains a firm presence (notably in a/e/s), helping text stay dark and cohesive even at smaller sizes. Numerals match the letterforms in weight and compactness, suited to information-forward settings.
