A compact, heavy sans with rounded terminals and a largely even stroke weight. Proportions are tall and tight, with small counters and gently softened corners that keep the texture smooth and consistent in lines of text. Curves are simple and sturdy, and the overall rhythm is dense without feeling harsh.
Well suited for headlines, subheads, posters, packaging, and branding where a compact but bold voice is needed. It can work in UI labels, badges, and short callouts that benefit from high contrast against the background and a friendly feel. For longer paragraphs, it’s best used sparingly as a supporting display style due to its dense, condensed color.
This typeface reads as friendly and approachable, with a soft, personable tone. Its condensed stance and chunky presence give it a confident, poster-like energy that feels upbeat and contemporary rather than formal.
The design appears intended to deliver strong emphasis in limited horizontal space while staying inviting. Rounded endings and simplified forms suggest a goal of maintaining legibility and a smooth texture at display sizes, avoiding the sharpness of more industrial condensed faces.
The font maintains a consistent, rounded finish across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, creating a cohesive family feel. Its narrow set and tight internal spaces create a dark, efficient line color that emphasizes impact over airy readability.
