A condensed, monoline sans with an angular, faceted construction that replaces many curves with crisp planar turns. Strokes maintain an even thickness and terminate in flat, squared ends, producing a clean, machined silhouette. Bowls and rounds read as gently squared or chamfered, with narrow apertures and a tight overall set that emphasizes vertical rhythm. Numerals and lowercase share the same disciplined geometry, with compact counters and simplified, high-clarity forms at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and short-form copy where condensed width and angular details add character without relying on ornament. It also fits utilitarian contexts such as signage, labels, and packaging, especially when a technical or industrial aesthetic is desired.
The overall tone feels engineered and pragmatic, with a slightly retro-industrial flavor reminiscent of labeling, signage, and instrument typography. Its sharp geometry communicates precision and efficiency rather than softness or warmth, lending a confident, no-nonsense voice to headings.
The design appears intended to deliver a space-saving, high-impact sans with a distinctive faceted geometry, combining modern clarity with a hard-edged, constructed feel. Its consistent stroke and disciplined proportions suggest an emphasis on straightforward legibility in display and titling contexts while maintaining a strong stylistic signature.
Faceting is most noticeable where traditional curves would appear, creating distinctive corners in shapes like C, G, S, and the rounded numerals. The design’s narrow proportions and tight internal space can make small-size body copy feel dense, but it reads strikingly in larger settings where the angular details are more apparent.
