A compact, tall sans with tightly drawn proportions and sturdy, monolinear strokes. Curves are clean and economical, with squared-off terminals that keep counters relatively small for the width. The uppercase shows a restrained, engineered geometry (notably in round letters like C, O, and G), while the lowercase stays simple and functional with minimal modulation and straightforward joins. Numerals follow the same condensed, blocky rhythm, reading clearly with strong vertical emphasis.
Well suited to headlines and short bursts of text where vertical compactness is useful—posters, signage, labels, and packaging that need strong presence in limited horizontal space. It can also work for UI titles or navigation where a condensed, high-impact voice is desired, especially at medium-to-large sizes.
The overall tone is direct and no-nonsense, projecting an industrial, signage-like confidence. Its compressed silhouette and firm stroke endings add urgency and authority, with a subtle retro utility flavor reminiscent of labeling and display typography.
Likely designed to provide a space-saving sans with strong visual weight and clear, utilitarian letterforms. The emphasis on tall proportions, consistent strokes, and squared terminals suggests an intention toward practical display use and confident brand or informational typography.
Spacing appears tight and consistent, creating a dense texture in paragraphs and a strong, stacked color in headlines. The shapes favor verticality over openness, so the face reads best when given breathing room through generous leading or slightly increased tracking in longer settings.
