A condensed, heavy sans with a squared, rounded-rectangle construction and largely uniform stroke weight. Curves resolve into softened corners rather than true circular bowls, giving counters a boxy, superelliptic feel. Vertical strokes dominate and terminals are blunt, producing a dense texture and strong silhouette; joins stay clean and compact, and spacing reads tight and economical. The lowercase is robust with a large x-height and short extenders, while capitals keep a tall, columnar stance that reinforces the compressed rhythm.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, display typography, and wayfinding-style signage where density and presence matter. It can also work for packaging, labels, and bold branding systems that benefit from a compact footprint and sturdy, uniform letterforms.
The tone is bold and no-nonsense, leaning industrial and poster-like rather than delicate or literary. Its compact proportions and hard-working shapes suggest signage, labeling, and strong headline messaging, with a slight retro utility flavor.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual weight in a compact width while maintaining clarity through simplified geometry and generous interior shapes. Its rounded-rectangle logic and blunt terminals prioritize consistency and punch for display use.
Round letters such as O/Q and the curved sections of B/D/P remain noticeably squared in their inner and outer contours, emphasizing a machined, stamped look. Numerals share the same condensed, heavy build, supporting consistent impact in mixed alphanumeric settings.
