A compact, tall display sans built from squared, rounded-rectangle forms. Strokes are heavy and largely uniform, with tight internal counters and crisp, straight terminals that emphasize vertical rhythm. Curves are translated into softened corners and superelliptical bowls, giving letters like O, D, and U a rectangular roundness rather than circular geometry. The overall spacing and proportions create a dense, stacked texture, with distinctive cut-ins and simplified joins that keep silhouettes clean at large sizes.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and branding where a compact, high-impact voice is needed. It can work well for signage and packaging systems that benefit from a tight, vertical rhythm and robust shapes, especially in short phrases and large-scale applications.
The tone feels industrial and retro-futurist, recalling signage, machinery labeling, and bold late-20th-century display typography. Its compressed, high-impact shapes read as assertive and utilitarian, with a slightly tech-forward edge driven by the squared rounds and tight counters.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual force in limited horizontal space, using rounded-rect geometry to keep forms sturdy and cohesive. Its simplified, block-like construction suggests a focus on bold display communication with a functional, industrial character.
The figures and capitals share the same tall, compressed construction, creating strong consistency between text and numerals. Narrow apertures and compact counters suggest best performance in short runs or larger settings where the internal shapes can stay clear.
