A condensed, monoline sans with tall proportions and rounded-rectangle construction throughout. Curves resolve into squarish bowls and counters, with softened corners that keep the heavy strokes from feeling sharp. Terminals are mostly flat and horizontal/vertical, and the rhythm is tightly packed with compact apertures and vertical emphasis. Numerals and capitals share the same sturdy, engineered geometry, producing a consistent, poster-ready texture at larger sizes.
Best suited to display roles where space is tight but impact is needed, such as headlines, posters, and bold typographic lockups. It also fits packaging, signage, and brand marks that benefit from a compact, industrial voice.
The overall tone is forceful and functional, with a compact, no-nonsense presence. Its compressed stance and squared rounds evoke industrial labeling and mid-century display typography, reading as bold, confident, and slightly retro without becoming decorative.
The design appears intended as a high-impact condensed sans that maximizes presence per horizontal space. Its rounded-rectangle skeleton and firm terminals aim for a controlled, engineered look that remains approachable through softened corners.
Round letters like O, Q, and G appear built from superelliptical shapes, giving a distinctive “rounded-square” feel in both bowls and counters. The lowercase maintains a strong vertical spine and tight internal space, which boosts impact but can reduce clarity in dense text settings.
