A compact, condensed sans with sturdy, near-uniform stroke weight and a largely geometric construction. Curves are smooth and round with soft transitions, while terminals tend to read as cleanly cut, giving the face a crisp, utilitarian finish. Proportions are tight and tall, with relatively small lowercase bodies and prominent ascenders/descenders that create a vertical rhythm. Counters are open for the width, and round letters like O/C/S show controlled oval shaping rather than wide circles; the numerals follow the same compact, heavy set.
It suits short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, labels, and signage where a compact footprint is useful. It can also work for bold branding lockups and packaging text that needs to stay readable while fitting into limited horizontal space.
The overall tone feels modern and no-nonsense: dense, efficient, and confident. Its compressed stance and strong weight give it an energetic, poster-like presence, while the restrained geometry keeps it professional rather than playful.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, space-efficient sans for display and attention-leading copy, balancing geometric roundness with a practical, compact rhythm for dense compositions.
The typeface maintains consistent stroke behavior across caps, lowercase, and figures, producing an even color in text. The narrow set increases impact per line, and the generous vertical extents help preserve clarity despite the condensed width.
