This typeface uses tall, condensed proportions with heavy, even stroke weight and clean, squared-off terminals. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, giving bowls and counters a slightly squarish, superelliptical feel rather than purely circular forms. Apertures tend to be tight and counters compact, producing dense color and strong vertical rhythm. The lowercase maintains a straightforward, utilitarian structure with short-to-moderate extenders and minimal modulation, while figures match the blunt, sturdy construction for consistent texture in mixed settings.
Best suited to headlines, short statements, and display settings where compact width and strong presence are advantages. It can work well for branding, packaging, labels, and wayfinding where a bold, structured sans voice is desired, especially at medium-to-large sizes.
The overall tone is forceful and utilitarian, with a contemporary, engineered feel. Its compact width and dense weight create an attention-grabbing voice that reads as no-nonsense and urban, leaning toward signage and poster aesthetics rather than delicate editorial nuance.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in limited horizontal space, pairing condensed proportions with rounded-rectangle construction for a distinctive, contemporary silhouette. It prioritizes bold, stable forms and consistent rhythm to support strong display typography.
The narrow set and tight internal spaces can make similar shapes cluster visually at smaller sizes, but at larger sizes the superelliptical rounding adds a distinctive, structured character. The regularity of stems and the blunt terminals keep the texture steady across all-caps and mixed-case lines.
