A compact sans with chunky, monoline strokes and a distinctly rounded-rectangle construction in bowls and counters. Curves resolve into softened corners rather than perfect circles, giving letters a squared-off, superellipse feel. Terminals are mostly flat and blunt, joins are firm, and the overall spacing feels tight and economical, producing a dense, poster-like rhythm in text. Numerals follow the same sturdy geometry with simplified, highly legible silhouettes.
Best suited for headlines, posters, packaging, and signage where space is limited and impact is needed. Its compact forms and blunt terminals make it effective for wordmarks and short bursts of text, and it can also serve as a strong typographic accent in editorial or UI callouts when set with comfortable line spacing.
The tone is direct and workmanlike, with a slightly retro, sign-painter/label vibe driven by its condensed stance and squared rounding. It reads confident and functional rather than delicate, projecting a no-nonsense voice suited to bold messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum clarity and presence in a condensed footprint, using rounded-rectangle geometry to keep forms friendly while remaining firmly utilitarian. It prioritizes bold readability and a consistent, industrial rhythm across letters and numerals.
Round letters like C, G, O, and Q show a consistent squarish rounding, while verticals stay dominant, reinforcing a tall, compact texture. The lowercase maintains clear differentiation (notably a single-storey a and g), supporting quick recognition at display sizes.
