A tightly condensed, monoline sans with very tall proportions and a strong vertical rhythm. Curves resolve into rounded-rectangle (superellipse-like) forms, giving bowls and counters a squared-round feel rather than purely circular geometry. Terminals are clean and mostly straight-cut, with minimal modulation and crisp joins that keep the texture even. The extreme narrowness and long extenders create a compact horizontal footprint while maintaining a prominent, columnar presence.
Best suited for display settings where its condensed width and strong vertical rhythm can amplify impact—posters, headlines, logotypes, packaging, and title cards. It can also work for short UI labels or navigation where space is tight, though extended passages will benefit from generous size and spacing.
The overall tone feels industrial and retro-modern, with a poster-like intensity created by the tall, compressed silhouettes. Its squared-round curves and strict verticality read as engineered and graphic, suggesting a utilitarian sensibility with a stylized, display-forward edge.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence in minimal horizontal space, using a disciplined monoline structure and superellipse-based curves to create a distinctive, contemporary-industrial voice. It emphasizes a consistent, modular silhouette that stays recognizable and bold in compact layouts.
In text, the dense spacing and narrow counters create a dark, continuous texture that becomes most legible at larger sizes. The rounded-rectangle construction is especially apparent in letters with bowls and in the numerals, reinforcing a consistent, modular personality across the set.
