A condensed, heavy sans with a rounded-rectangle (superelliptic) construction. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, and corners are broadly radiused, producing soft, pill-like joins on otherwise blocky outlines. Counters are compact and vertical emphasis is strong, giving the alphabet a tall, tightly packed rhythm. Round letters such as O/C/G read more like squarish ovals, while straight-sided forms (E/F/H/N) keep crisp, simplified geometry; numerals follow the same sturdy, compressed logic.
Best suited to headlines, display copy, posters, and branding where a compact, high-impact voice is needed. It can work well for wayfinding or label-style applications thanks to its simplified forms and strong presence, especially when set with generous tracking or ample line spacing.
The overall tone is bold and no-nonsense, mixing industrial clarity with a slightly retro, signage-like friendliness from the rounded corners. It feels confident and attention-grabbing without becoming decorative or playful.
Likely designed to deliver maximum impact in limited horizontal space, pairing condensed proportions with rounded-rectangle forms for a distinctive, modern-signage look. The consistent weight and simplified geometry suggest an emphasis on clarity, solidity, and repeatable visual rhythm across letters and numerals.
The condensed proportions and tight internal spaces make the texture dense in paragraphs, while large sizes emphasize the font’s smooth rectangular geometry. The design leans on simple silhouettes and strong verticals, which helps maintain recognizable shapes even with minimal detail.
