A compact, condensed sans with heavy, uniform strokes and a tall lowercase that reads almost like small caps at a glance. Forms are built from rounded-rectangle geometry—straight sides, flattened curves, and squarish bowls—producing a strong, modular rhythm. Corners are consistently softened, while outer edges and counters show slight irregularities that feel intentionally worn or ink-pressed rather than perfectly machined. Spacing is tight and efficient, with simplified apertures and sturdy joins that keep the texture dense in lines of text.
Best suited for headlines, posters, labels, and packaging where a dense, high-impact typographic block is desirable. It can also work for short subheads or UI labels when a rugged, industrial voice is needed, but the tight, condensed texture is most effective at larger sizes.
The overall tone is bold and workmanlike, with a faintly distressed, stamped quality that suggests grit and practicality. It leans toward vintage industrial and display lettering, projecting confidence and toughness without becoming sharp or aggressive thanks to its rounded corners.
The design appears aimed at delivering maximum impact in minimal width, using rounded-rectangle construction for a sturdy, contemporary-meets-vintage silhouette and subtle edge wear to evoke printed or stamped lettering.
The uppercase dominates with tall, narrow silhouettes, while the lowercase maintains similar proportions and weight, reinforcing a unified, compact color on the page. Numerals follow the same squarish, rounded construction, making mixed text and figures feel consistent and poster-ready.
