A condensed, monoline sans with tall proportions and tight sidebearings, built from slender vertical stems and simple geometric curves. Many letters show deliberate interruptions and small bridges in key strokes, creating a clean stencil-like construction while keeping the overall rhythm even. Terminals tend toward squared or softly rounded ends, and counters are kept open and uncluttered, contributing to crisp legibility at display sizes. Numerals follow the same narrow, airy structure, with several forms featuring subtle breaks that reinforce the engineered feel.
Well-suited to signage and wayfinding, product and industrial packaging, and compact headlines where a tall, condensed silhouette helps conserve space. It also works for branding systems that want a modern, engineered stencil accent, especially in larger sizes where the breaks remain clear.
The tone is industrial and technical, with a minimalist, system-oriented character that suggests labeling, equipment markings, and contemporary wayfinding. Its restrained stroke work and stencil breaks give it a purposeful, utilitarian voice rather than a decorative one.
The design appears intended to merge a clean condensed sans structure with purposeful stencil breaks, delivering an industrial aesthetic that stays orderly and readable. It prioritizes efficient vertical rhythm and a controlled, technical presence for display-oriented typography.
In longer text, the narrow build and frequent vertical emphasis produce a strong tempo; the stencil interruptions add texture without turning into ornament. The lowercase maintains a tall, clean presence that pairs well with the uppercase for compact, space-conscious compositions.
