A tall, condensed sans with even, monoline strokes and a compact footprint. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, giving bowls and counters a squarish, superelliptical feel rather than fully circular forms. Terminals are clean and mostly flat, with consistently rounded joins that keep the texture smooth despite the strong weight. Proportions favor verticality and tight internal spacing; apertures tend to be relatively closed, and shapes like B, P, R, and 9 read as firm, boxed-in forms.
Works well for headlines, posters, and short emphatic lines where a dense, vertical rhythm is desirable. The strong, compact forms also suit signage, packaging, and labeling where space is limited and a firm, utilitarian voice is needed.
The overall tone is direct and functional, with a sturdy, engineered presence. Its compressed width and squared-round curves evoke industrial labeling and contemporary signage, conveying efficiency more than warmth.
Likely designed to deliver a bold, space-saving sans for display and functional typography, pairing condensed proportions with rounded-rectangle construction to maintain clarity and consistency at larger sizes.
Uppercase and lowercase share a cohesive, constructed logic, producing an even color in text. The numerals follow the same condensed, rounded-rect rhythm, making mixed alphanumeric settings look consistent and systematic.
