A tall, compact sans with squared, superelliptical curves and softly rounded corners. Strokes are uniform and heavy, producing a dense, consistent texture with minimal modulation. Counters are tight and mostly rectangular-oval, and terminals tend to end in flat cuts that keep the rhythm crisp. The lowercase maintains a straightforward, workmanlike construction with simple joins and compact apertures, while figures follow the same condensed, blocky logic for a cohesive set.
Best suited to headlines and short bursts of text where a tall, compact footprint is useful and strong presence is desired. It works well for signage, packaging, sports or industrial branding, and UI labels that benefit from firm, space-efficient letterforms. In longer passages, its dense color and narrow counters will be most comfortable at larger sizes with generous line spacing.
The overall tone is strong and functional, with a restrained, industrial feel. Its condensed proportions and sturdy shapes read as direct and assertive, suggesting efficiency and control rather than delicacy. The rounded-rectangle geometry adds a slightly modern, engineered character that still feels familiar and practical.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a constrained horizontal space while keeping a clean, geometric voice. Its superelliptical curves and flat terminals prioritize consistency and reproducibility, aiming for a modern, engineered aesthetic that holds up in bold display applications.
Because of the tight spacing and compact counters, the face creates a high-impact vertical presence, especially in all caps. The design’s consistent geometry across letters and numerals supports a disciplined, system-like look that stays stable across mixed-case settings.
