A condensed, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle construction and a strongly vertical stance. Strokes appear largely uniform, with squared-off terminals softened by subtle corner rounding, producing a compact, engineered look. Counters are tight and often rectangular, with a narrow aperture in letters like C and S and a clean, straight-sided O. The lowercase is tall and sturdy, with single-storey a and g, short ascenders/descenders relative to the x-height, and dense spacing that creates a dark, continuous texture in text. Numerals follow the same condensed, blocky rhythm, with simplified forms and minimal modulation.
Best suited to headlines, posters, labels, and signage where a compact, high-impact line can carry across distance or crowded layouts. It also fits packaging and bold branding systems that want a condensed, industrial feel. For longer reading, it will benefit from larger sizes and more open leading to offset the dense counters.
The overall tone is assertive and pragmatic, leaning toward industrial signage and modern utilitarian branding. Its compact width and dense color give it a decisive, no-nonsense voice that reads as functional, strong, and contemporary rather than delicate or expressive.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact in a narrow footprint, using rounded-rectangle geometry to keep forms consistent and sturdy. Its simplified, compact lettershapes prioritize clarity and punch in display contexts while maintaining a cohesive, engineered rhythm across letters and figures.
Roundness is expressed more as softened corners than as fully circular curves, reinforcing the superelliptical, machined geometry. Diagonals (A, V, W, X, Y) are steep and tight, keeping the silhouette narrow while maintaining weight consistency. In paragraph-like settings, the heavy texture and tight internal space suggest it will be most comfortable at larger sizes or with generous line spacing.
