A compact, heavy display sans with tall, narrow proportions and a distinctly squared-round construction. Strokes are broadly uniform with subtle contrast, and curves resolve into rounded-rectangle bowls and counters rather than fully circular forms. Terminals are mostly flat and clean, producing a tightly packed rhythm and strong vertical emphasis; interior apertures are relatively small, reinforcing the dense, punchy texture. Numerals and caps share the same sturdy, engineered feel, while lowercase remains straightforward and utilitarian with simple joins and minimal detailing.
Best suited to short-form, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, signage, and bold brand or package lockups. It can also work for subheads and callouts where a compact width helps fit more characters without losing presence.
The overall tone is bold and utilitarian, with a no-nonsense, industrial confidence. Its condensed stance and squared-round geometry suggest sports, machinery, and headline-driven communication where authority and impact matter more than delicacy.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual weight in a constrained width, using squared-round forms to balance mechanical firmness with approachable soft corners. It prioritizes clarity at display sizes and a strong, consistent silhouette for attention-grabbing typographic statements.
The typeface maintains a consistent, modular silhouette across rounded letters, with corners softened enough to avoid harshness while staying firmly architectural. In continuous text it creates a dark, commanding color with strong vertical momentum, making spacing and line breaks feel tight and deliberate.
