A compact, tightly spaced sans with tall proportions and heavy, even strokes. Letterforms are built from rounded-rectangle geometry: corners are softened, curves stay squared-off, and bowls read as superelliptical rather than circular. Counters are relatively small, terminals are blunt, and joins are sturdy, creating a dense, poster-ready texture. The lowercase follows the same engineered logic, with simplified shapes and minimal modulation; numerals match the same rigid, compact construction for a consistent set.
Best suited to headlines, display typography, and short bursts of text where maximum density and punch are needed. It performs well for packaging, labels, signage, and branding systems that benefit from a compact footprint and a strong, engineered look.
The overall tone is forceful and utilitarian, with a confident, no-nonsense presence. Its condensed, blocky rhythm evokes industrial labeling and athletic signage—direct, loud, and built for impact rather than delicacy.
The font appears intended to deliver high-impact communication in limited horizontal space while maintaining a distinctive rounded-rect geometry. It prioritizes bold silhouette clarity and a consistent, industrial rhythm over open counters and fine detail.
The design’s squared curves and tight internal spaces favor large sizes where the softened corners and superelliptical bowls become clearly visible. In longer lines, the strong vertical emphasis produces a steady, compact cadence that feels structured and mechanical.
