A tightly condensed sans with heavy, even strokes and a compact, vertical rhythm. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, giving bowls and counters a squarish, superelliptical feel rather than true circles. Terminals are blunt and clean, with minimal modulation; apertures and counters are kept relatively tight, emphasizing a dense, poster-like texture. The lowercase shows a high x-height with short ascenders/descenders, and the numerals match the same compressed, sturdy construction.
Best suited to headlines and short, high-impact lines where space is limited and a dense typographic color is desired. It can work well for posters, editorial display, branding marks, packaging, and signage that benefits from condensed width and strong vertical emphasis.
The overall tone is forceful and workmanlike, projecting a no-nonsense, industrial clarity. Its compressed, blocky forms feel contemporary and engineered, leaning more toward functional signage energy than friendly warmth.
The font appears designed to maximize impact and legibility in a compressed footprint, using rounded-rectangle construction to create a modern, industrial voice. Its consistent stroke weight and compact proportions suggest a focus on bold display communication rather than nuanced text typography.
The design’s superelliptical rounding keeps the forms from feeling purely rigid, but the narrow proportions and tight internal space maintain a strong, compact color in text. In the sample setting, it holds a consistent, uniform texture that favors display sizes over long passages.
