A tightly condensed sans with tall proportions and even, steady stroke weight throughout. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, giving bowls and counters a squared-off feel with softened corners. Terminals are predominantly flat and blunt, with minimal modulation and a compact rhythm that emphasizes verticality. The overall spacing reads efficient and column-like, producing strong color in lines of text and clear, punchy silhouettes in display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, posters, and packaging where a compact width and high impact are useful. Its strong vertical emphasis also works well for signage and space-constrained layouts, as well as branding that calls for a condensed, industrial voice.
The tone is utilitarian and assertive, with an industrial, modern edge. Its compressed stance and squared-round forms suggest efficiency, control, and clarity rather than friendliness or ornament.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence in minimal horizontal space, combining a strict condensed skeleton with rounded-rectangle curves for a contemporary, engineered look.
Round letters like C, O, and Q keep a boxy superellipse structure, while diagonals in A, V, W, X, and Y are narrow and sharply disciplined. Numerals match the same tall, condensed construction, supporting consistent texture when mixing text and figures.
