A compact, geometric sans with heavy, even strokes and a distinctly squared–rounded construction. Curves resolve into superellipse-like bowls and counters, giving letters like O/C/G a rounded-rectangle feel rather than a purely circular one. Terminals are clean and flat, joins are sturdy, and the overall texture is dense with tight interior spaces and a consistent, mechanical rhythm. Lowercase forms are straightforward and contemporary, with single-storey shapes where expected and minimal modulation, keeping the silhouette crisp at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, posters, packaging, and branding systems that need a compact, high-impact voice. It also fits wayfinding and short signage where a dense, geometric look is desirable, especially when set with comfortable tracking and generous line spacing.
The tone is modern and forceful, with an industrial, utilitarian character. Its compact proportions and blocky curves convey efficiency and certainty, reading as confident and no-nonsense rather than playful or decorative.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, space-efficient sans with a geometric, rounded-rectangular skeleton—optimized for attention-grabbing display typography and robust, consistent letterforms across alphanumerics.
The condensed width and thick strokes create strong word shapes but also reduce counter openness, so spacing and size will matter for longer passages. Numerals follow the same squared-rounded logic, feeling sturdy and signage-like, and the overall set maintains a consistent, tightly built geometry across caps, lowercase, and figures.
