A tall, tightly condensed sans with mostly straight-sided stems and rounded corners that soften the geometry. Curves are simplified into oval and rounded-rectangle shapes, giving counters a clean, controlled feel. Stroke weight stays even throughout, with minimal modulation and crisp terminals; joins are firm and angular where needed. Lowercase forms are compact with a single-storey “a,” a simple “g,” and short extenders relative to the overall height, while the numerals follow the same narrow, upright rhythm.
Best suited to short-to-medium headline settings where space is limited and a strong vertical presence is desired, such as posters, signage, packaging labels, and editorial titling. It can also work for UI or data labels when narrow width is an advantage, though longer paragraphs may feel dense at smaller sizes.
The overall tone is efficient and no-nonsense, with a subtle retro-industrial flavor reminiscent of signage and compressed headlines. Its narrow stance and steady stroke make it feel focused, practical, and slightly mechanical rather than friendly or calligraphic.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum information in minimal horizontal space while maintaining clear, stable shapes. By pairing compressed proportions with rounded-rectangle construction and steady strokes, it aims for a functional, display-forward voice that remains orderly and legible.
The condensed proportions create a strong vertical cadence and dense word shapes, making spacing and line breaks feel tight and intentional. Round letters like O/C/G read as elongated ovals, reinforcing the font’s tall silhouette and compact horizontal footprint.
