This typeface is built from tall, compressed forms with a largely monoline stroke and softly squared (superelliptic) curves. Round letters like O, C, and G read as narrow rounded-rectangles, while verticals dominate most glyphs, giving the design a strongly vertical rhythm. Terminals are clean and blunt, counters are compact, and joins stay crisp, producing a dense, economical texture in words. Lowercase forms follow the same narrow, upright construction with short ascenders/descenders relative to the overall tall proportion, and figures match the condensed, flat-sided geometry for a consistent text color.
Best suited to display settings where space is limited and strong vertical emphasis helps text cut through—posters, headlines, packaging, brand marks, and signage. It can also work for short callouts and labels where a compact, high-impact sans is needed.
The overall tone is confident and utilitarian, with a slightly retro, poster-like punch. Its compressed, architectural shapes feel direct and attention-seeking, suggesting efficiency and impact rather than softness or delicacy.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence in a narrow width, using rounded-rectangle construction to keep forms sturdy and consistent. Its simplified, monoline drawing prioritizes clarity at large sizes and a distinctive condensed silhouette for attention-driven typography.
In running text the tight internal spaces and narrow apertures can make extended passages feel dense, while large sizes emphasize the distinctive rounded-rectangle skeleton. The uppercase shows a uniform, sign-like regularity; the lowercase and numerals maintain the same condensed, engineered character for cohesive typographic voice.
