A condensed, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle construction and largely monolinear strokes. Curves resolve into squared-off terminals and soft corners, giving counters and bowls a superelliptical feel. Proportions are tall with compact apertures; joins are clean and verticals dominate, creating a strong, poster-like rhythm. Figures follow the same squared-round logic, with simple, compact forms that read as sturdy and utilitarian.
Best suited to display sizes where its condensed width and heavy mass can maximize impact—headlines, posters, labels, and branding marks. It also works well for signage or UI headings where space is limited and a firm, high-contrast silhouette is beneficial, though long paragraphs may feel dense due to the tight apertures and compressed rhythm.
The overall tone feels retro-industrial and workmanlike, with a confident, mechanical clarity. Its tall, compressed stance and squared curves suggest classic signage and mid‑century display typography, projecting a practical, assertive voice rather than a delicate or expressive one.
The letterforms appear designed to combine the efficiency of condensed proportions with a softened, rounded-rectangle geometry for a distinctive, durable display voice. It aims for strong recognizability and compact set width while keeping curves controlled and terminals clean for consistent, sign-ready shapes.
The design leans on straight stems and boxy curves, producing a consistent texture in all-caps settings and a tight, efficient footprint. Lowercase maintains the same condensed, squared-round vocabulary, keeping mixed-case text visually unified and dense.
