A compact, tall-proportioned sans with monoline strokes and softly rounded terminals. Counters are relatively tight and vertical stems dominate, creating a compressed rhythm with clear, simplified shapes. Curves are smooth and geometric rather than calligraphic, and joins stay clean with minimal flare. Overall spacing feels economical, producing a dense, efficient texture in text.
Works best for short to medium-length settings where a strong, space-saving voice is needed, such as headlines, posters, signage, and packaging labels. It can also suit UI or data-dense layouts when a compact width and high visual presence are priorities.
The tone is straightforward and practical, with an industrial edge that nods to mid‑century signage and labeling. Its condensed stance and sturdy construction feel assertive and no-nonsense, while rounded corners keep it approachable rather than harsh.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum impact in minimal horizontal space, prioritizing legibility and consistency with a clean, engineered feel. Rounded terminals and simplified geometry suggest an intent to be versatile across display and functional applications without becoming decorative.
Capitals read especially tall and columnar, and the numerals follow the same simplified, functional drawing. The design maintains consistent stroke behavior across letters, favoring clarity and uniformity over expressive modulation.
