A tightly condensed sans with tall proportions and a compact rhythm. Strokes are heavy and largely uniform, with softened, rounded-rectangle curves that keep bowls and counters clean and controlled. Terminals are mostly straight and blunt, with minimal modulation and a strong vertical emphasis; apertures stay fairly closed, reinforcing a dense, poster-like color. Numerals and punctuation follow the same squared-off, sturdy construction for a consistent texture across lines.
Best suited to display settings where space is limited but impact is needed: headlines, posters, labels, packaging, and bold branding lockups. It can also work for short UI or navigational labels when a condensed, high-contrast-in-mass look is desired, but extended text may feel dense due to the narrow widths and tight internal spaces.
The overall tone is forceful and practical, reading as modern, industrial, and no-nonsense. Its narrow stance and dark weight give it an assertive voice suited to attention-grabbing messaging rather than subtlety.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum emphasis in minimal horizontal space, using a squared, rounded-corner geometry to stay contemporary and controlled while keeping the overall texture dense and confident.
Round letters lean toward superelliptical geometry—more squared than circular—which helps maintain even width and a disciplined cadence. The design prioritizes compactness and impact, with counters kept relatively tight to preserve a strong silhouette at display sizes.
