A tall, tightly condensed sans with monoline strokes and rounded-rectangle construction. Curves are squared-off into soft corners, giving counters and bowls a superelliptical feel rather than circular. The overall rhythm is compact with short apertures and firm terminals, producing a dense texture in text. Lowercase forms are straightforward and functional, with a single-storey a and g, compact shoulders, and a narrow, vertical emphasis throughout.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, and packaging where vertical space is at a premium and a strong condensed presence is desired. It can also work for signage and interface labels when a compact, assertive look is needed, though its dense texture favors display sizes over extended reading.
The font conveys a pragmatic, industrial tone—direct, space-efficient, and built for impact. Its squared-round shapes and compressed proportions evoke utilitarian signage and contemporary branding that prioritizes clarity and strength.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual presence within a narrow width, using squared-round geometry to keep forms robust and legible while maintaining a contemporary, engineered character.
Round letters like O, Q, and 0 read as rounded rectangles, while straight-sided letters (E, F, H, N) feel especially rigid and architectural. The numerals are narrow and sturdy, with simple geometry that matches the condensed caps and maintains a consistent, no-nonsense voice in running text.
