A tall, tightly condensed sans with uniform stroke weight and squared-off curves that read as softened rectangles. Counters and bowls stay narrow and vertical, with minimal contrast and clean, straight terminals. Rounds (O, C, G, 0) feel superelliptical rather than circular, giving the design a compact, engineered rhythm. Spacing appears economical and consistent, supporting dense lines without losing overall clarity.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and branding where space is tight but presence is required. It works well on packaging and signage that needs quick scanning and a compact footprint, and can add a punchy, industrial flavor to short editorial display lines.
The overall tone is bold and no-nonsense, with an industrial, utilitarian feel that also nods to vintage signage. Its narrow stance and crisp geometry convey urgency and impact, making text feel immediate and emphatic rather than delicate or conversational.
The design appears intended as a high-impact condensed display sans: maximizing density and legibility while maintaining a consistent, geometric construction. Its rounded-rectangle forms aim to balance strict, engineered structure with a slightly softened edge for broader visual appeal.
The condensed proportions create a strong vertical cadence, and the rounded-rectangle construction keeps curves stable across letters and figures. Numerals follow the same tall, compact logic, helping mixed alphanumeric settings look cohesive.
