A condensed display sans with heavy, compact strokes and pronounced vertical emphasis. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, giving bowls and counters a squared, superelliptical feel with softened corners. The joins show tight interior cut-ins that read like ink traps, while terminals tend toward flat, blunt endings. Proportions are tall and columnar with relatively small counters, producing a dense rhythm; numerals share the same narrow stance and sturdy, blocky construction.
Best suited to high-impact applications where space is tight and strong presence is needed—posters, headlines, logotypes, packaging labels, and signage. It can also work for short subheads or callouts, but its dense counters and tight shapes make it less ideal for extended small-size reading.
The overall tone is bold and utilitarian, evoking vintage industrial signage and headline typography. Its compressed width and squared-round shapes create a confident, slightly theatrical presence that feels retro without becoming ornamental.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch in a narrow footprint, using rounded-rectangle construction and interior cut-ins to preserve clarity while keeping strokes heavy and compact.
The lowercase shows a tall, condensed profile with a single-storey "a" and compact bowls, and the uppercase maintains a consistent vertical silhouette across A–Z. Wide letters such as M and W remain tightly compressed, reinforcing a uniform, stacked texture in text lines.
