A compact, heavy sans with tightly condensed proportions and a squared-off, superellipse construction. Curves read as rounded rectangles rather than true circles, giving counters a pill-like geometry and keeping bowls and shoulders firm and controlled. Strokes stay largely even, with abrupt, straight-sided joins and slightly softened corners that prevent the forms from feeling sharp. Several capitals show internal vertical cuts/splits (notably in M, N, and W), adding a subtle stencil-like texture while maintaining a solid overall color.
Best suited to bold headlines, posters, and short, high-impact messaging where dense, condensed letterforms help fit more text into limited width. It can also serve branding, packaging, and signage that benefits from a compact, industrial voice and strong presence.
The tone is loud and utilitarian: confident, poster-forward, and a bit rugged. Its compressed stance and high ink density create a sense of urgency and authority, while the rounded-rectangle shaping adds a modern, engineered feel with a mild retro echo.
The design appears aimed at delivering maximum punch in minimal horizontal space, using superellipse-based forms for a consistent, engineered rhythm. The occasional internal cut detailing suggests an intention to add visual grit and distinction without sacrificing the overall solidity and readability at large sizes.
Spacing appears tight and the texture is dark, making the face most comfortable at display sizes. The lowercase is sturdy and straightforward, with single-story forms where expected and compact apertures that prioritize silhouette over openness. Numerals match the blocky, condensed construction and hold up well as bold headline figures.
