A compact, heavy display sans with tall proportions and tightly contained counters. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, giving bowls and shoulders a squared-off softness rather than purely circular forms. Stems are thick and consistent, with crisp terminals and minimal detailing; horizontal strokes stay short, reinforcing the vertical rhythm. Spacing reads disciplined and columnar, and the overall texture is dense and punchy, with small apertures in letters like C, S, and e contributing to a strong, enclosed silhouette.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, and brand marks where a dense, authoritative voice is needed. It also works well for packaging, labels, and signage that benefit from tight, upright letterforms and strong figure shapes.
The tone feels bold and no-nonsense, with a utilitarian, engineered character that nods to vintage signage and industrial labeling. Its compact shapes and squared-round curves project confidence and immediacy, leaning more functional and mechanical than friendly or calligraphic.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in limited horizontal space, using rounded-rectilinear construction to keep forms sturdy and consistent. Its emphasis on verticality and compact counters suggests a focus on display clarity and a distinctive, industrial-leaning identity.
Uppercase forms show a distinctly vertical emphasis, while lowercase maintains the same compact construction with sturdy joins and short arms. Numerals share the same squared-rounded logic, keeping a consistent, sign-ready presence across letters and figures.
