A tall, compact sans with even stroke weight and a tightly condensed stance. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, giving bowls and counters a squared-off softness rather than true circles. Terminals are generally flat and clean, with minimal modulation and a strong vertical rhythm; joins are sturdy and slightly blunt, producing a dense, poster-ready texture. The lowercase is straightforward and functional, with simple single-storey forms where expected and compact apertures that keep the overall color dark and consistent.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and short display lines where a compact, high-impact voice is needed. It can work well for branding, packaging, and signage systems that benefit from a tall condensed silhouette and a geometric, industrial feel, especially at medium to large sizes.
The overall tone is forceful and no-nonsense, with an industrial clarity that reads as practical and direct. Its rounded-rect geometry adds a subtle retro-tech flavor, keeping the mood modern but slightly mechanical rather than friendly or casual.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in minimal horizontal space while preserving a consistent, engineered geometry. Its rounded-rectangle construction suggests an aim toward a contemporary technical aesthetic that remains highly legible and visually uniform in display settings.
The condensed proportions and tight internal spaces create a strong typographic “wall” at larger sizes, while the squared curves help maintain a disciplined, engineered look across both capitals and lowercase. Numerals follow the same compact, sturdy construction, matching the letterforms’ dense visual color.
