A condensed serif display face with heavy, mostly monoline strokes and squared counters that read cleanly at large sizes. Forms are built from straight verticals and tight curves, with subtly rounded corners and occasional notch-like interior cuts that give an ink-trap or stamped feel. Serifs are small and crisp rather than wide slabs, and many terminals are flattened or slightly flared, reinforcing a rigid, engineered rhythm. The lowercase is compact with single-story a and g, short ascenders, and a sturdy, rectangular texture; numerals follow the same blocky construction and high contrast between black shapes and interior apertures.
Best suited to headlines, posters, badges, and bold packaging where condensed width and strong letterforms help fit more characters while maintaining impact. It can also work for signage-style branding and logotypes that want a structured, industrial voice; for longer text, it’s most effective in short statements or display settings.
The overall tone is tough and utilitarian—suggesting signage, machinery labels, and legacy print ephemera—while still feeling deliberate and designed rather than rough. Its narrow, tall stance and hard-edged detailing project authority and urgency, with a subtle retro-industrial character.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence in a compact width, combining classic serif cues with geometric, factory-like construction and small functional details that prevent shapes from clogging as they get heavier. The result is a distinctive display serif aimed at attention-grabbing editorial and branding contexts.
The face creates a very dark, continuous typographic color with tight internal spacing and minimal curve softness, so it tends to dominate a layout. Distinctive cut-ins on letters like S and K and the squared bowls on B/D/O/Q add recognizability, especially in headlines and short bursts of text.
