A condensed, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle construction and compact counters. Strokes are thick and mostly uniform, with subtly softened corners and gently squared curves that give bowls and terminals a superelliptical feel. Edges show slight irregularity and speckling, suggesting a worn print or inked stamp effect rather than perfectly clean outlines. Overall spacing is tight and vertical, producing a dense texture that stays readable at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines and short text where a dense, impactful voice is needed, such as posters, packaging fronts, labels, and signage. The textured edges and compact proportions also work well for branding elements that aim for a stamped or printed look, though extended small-size reading may feel heavy due to the tight counters.
The font projects an industrial, workmanlike tone with a vintage, printed patina. Its compact, sturdy shapes feel assertive and no-nonsense, while the surface wear adds a handmade, roughened character that reads as authentic and slightly rugged.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, high-impact sans with rounded-rect geometry and a deliberately worn texture. It prioritizes strong silhouettes and a bold, utilitarian rhythm, evoking vintage print or industrial labeling while remaining straightforward and legible in display settings.
Capitals are tall and compact with narrow apertures, while lowercase forms remain straightforward and sturdy, emphasizing clear silhouettes over finesse. Numerals follow the same condensed, blocky logic, keeping a consistent weight and footprint across the set.
