A compact, condensed sans with blunt terminals and subtly rounded corners, giving many letters a squared-off, superelliptical feel. Strokes are heavy and even, with minimal modulation and simplified joins that keep counters open despite the tight proportions. Curves tend to resolve into flattened arcs and rounded-rectangle bowls, while verticals dominate the texture and create a dense, rhythmic color in text. Numerals follow the same compact, sturdy construction with straightforward forms and minimal ornament.
Best suited to headlines and short blocks where a dense, condensed texture is an advantage—posters, packaging, labels, and wayfinding or retail signage. It can also work for UI or editorial callouts when space is tight and a firm, utilitarian voice is desired.
The overall tone is functional and assertive, blending a no-nonsense industrial feel with a slightly vintage, sign-painting/poster sensibility. Its narrow stance and chunky build make it feel direct and attention-getting without becoming decorative.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum presence in minimal horizontal space, using simplified, rounded-rectangle forms to maintain clarity and consistency at display sizes. Its geometry suggests an intent to feel modern and practical while nodding to condensed workhorse grotesques used in posters and signage.
The design reads especially cohesive in how it balances softened corners with firm, rectangular geometry, producing a confident blocky silhouette. In longer lines it creates a strong vertical cadence and a compact footprint, emphasizing economy of space and impact.
