A dense, condensed sans with monolinear strokes and a squared, superellipse construction. Curves resolve into rounded-rectangle bowls and terminals, giving letters a compact, engineered feel rather than a geometric-circle rhythm. Vertical stems dominate, counters are tight, and joins stay clean and straightforward, producing strong texture in paragraphs and headlines. The overall spacing reads compact, with small apertures and sturdy punctuation-like forms in the numerals.
Well suited for headlines and short bursts of copy where compact width and high visual density are beneficial, such as posters, packaging panels, labels, and wayfinding or signage. It can also support bold identity work—especially in sports, industrial, or tech-adjacent branding—where a condensed, blocky sans can carry a strong voice without ornamental detail.
The tone is assertive and utilitarian, with a poster and signage flavor that reads confident and no-nonsense. Its squared curves add a subtle retro-industrial character, balancing modern minimalism with a hint of vintage display typography.
Likely designed to deliver maximum impact in minimal horizontal space, using squared, rounded-rectangle forms to create a distinctive condensed silhouette. The simplified, sturdy construction suggests an emphasis on clarity and repeatable rhythm for display typography across branding and messaging.
Round letters like O/Q read more like softened rectangles than circles, reinforcing the mechanical voice. The lowercase maintains strong presence and legibility at display sizes thanks to its tall proportions and simplified shapes, while the condensed width creates a tight, impactful rhythm in lines of text.
