A tall, compact sans with heavy, even strokes and a tight overall footprint. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle geometry: bowls and counters read as squarish superellipses with softened corners rather than true circles. Terminals are predominantly flat and firm, with minimal modulation and a strong vertical emphasis; diagonals in letters like V/W/Y are straight and sharply joined. Spacing appears controlled and slightly tight, reinforcing a dense, poster-friendly texture.
Well suited to headlines, posters, and large-scale messaging where a dense, high-impact line length is useful. It also fits signage, labels, and packaging systems that benefit from compact letterforms and strong silhouette clarity.
The font conveys a direct, industrial tone with a confident, no-nonsense voice. Its condensed stance and squared-round forms feel engineered and practical, suggesting signage and machinery aesthetics more than friendly or expressive warmth.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence in minimal horizontal space, pairing a condensed structure with rounded-rectangle construction for a clean, engineered look. It prioritizes strong silhouettes and consistent stroke weight for straightforward, high-contrast messaging in display contexts.
The numerals follow the same squared-round logic, with compact widths and sturdy shapes that hold up at display sizes. The overall rhythm is consistent and blocky, producing a strong, uniform color across lines of text.
