A dense, condensed sans with heavy, uniform strokes and a compact rhythm. Letterforms are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, producing squarish counters in curves like C, O, and G and a consistently softened corner treatment throughout. Terminals are mostly blunt and flat, with minimal modulation and an overall tall silhouette; the uppercase feels especially architectural and vertical. The lowercase follows the same sturdy construction, with compact bowls and short, sturdy joins that keep texture tight in continuous text.
Well-suited to headlines, posters, and display settings where space is limited but impact is needed. The tight, tall forms also fit signage, packaging, and bold branding applications where a compact, industrial look helps maintain legibility and presence.
The font reads as forceful and pragmatic, with an industrial, signage-like voice. Its compressed proportions and blocky superellipse curves create a no-nonsense tone that feels modern, functional, and attention-grabbing rather than delicate or expressive.
Likely designed to deliver maximum visual impact in narrow horizontal space while maintaining a cohesive, geometric, rounded-rectangle construction. The consistent stroke weight and compact counters emphasize clarity and solidity for display-driven typography.
In the samples, the heavy weight and condensed width create strong headline color and clear word shapes at large sizes. The digit set matches the same squared, rounded-rectangle logic, giving numerals a consistent, poster-friendly presence alongside letters.
