A condensed sans with heavy strokes and rounded-rectangle geometry, showing softened corners and squared counters. Curves are built from superellipse-like arcs, giving bowls a boxy roundness, while terminals stay blunt and compact. The drawing includes subtle notches and inward cuts at joins and tight corners (an ink-trap-like effect) that add texture and help keep interiors open at bold sizes. Overall spacing is tight and rhythm is vertical, with sturdy stems and minimal modulation.
Works best for headlines, posters, packaging, and branding that benefits from a condensed, high-impact voice. It also suits signage and labels where a sturdy, space-saving sans is needed, especially when set in short lines or bold typographic lockups.
The tone feels industrial and slightly retro, like stamped labeling or mid-century display lettering. Its compact shapes and squared roundness read confident and functional, while the small notches and idiosyncratic joins add a controlled quirkiness.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in limited horizontal space while maintaining clarity through squared counters and small corner reliefs. It balances functional, sign-painter practicality with a distinctive, textured construction that keeps display settings from feeling generic.
Uppercase forms are tall and narrow with simplified construction, and the lowercase keeps similarly compact proportions with closed, rectangular bowls. Numerals follow the same squared-round logic and appear designed for uniform, sign-like presence. The texture is dense, making the font most at home at larger sizes where its corner detailing remains clear.
