A compact, tightly spaced sans with tall proportions and a strong vertical emphasis. Forms are built from squared-off, rounded-rectangle geometry, with softened corners and flattened curves that keep counters relatively narrow. Stroke weight is consistently heavy with subtle modulation, and terminals are clean and blunt, producing crisp, high-impact silhouettes. The uppercase is particularly tall and compressed, while the lowercase maintains a straightforward, workmanlike construction; numerals follow the same condensed, blocky rhythm.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and branding where a compact footprint and strong presence are needed. It also works well for packaging and signage applications that benefit from tall, condensed letterforms and clear, sturdy shapes.
The overall tone is tough and no-nonsense, with a slightly industrial flavor. Its narrow, powerful shapes read as direct and efficient, leaning more toward utility and impact than warmth or delicacy.
Likely designed to deliver maximum impact and legibility in a condensed width while maintaining a coherent rounded-rectangular construction. The emphasis appears to be on strong, repeatable shapes and a dense typographic color for attention-grabbing display use.
The rounded-rectilinear curve language shows up most in bowls and rounded letters, giving the face a distinctive ‘squared round’ texture. In text settings it creates a dense color and strong vertical cadence that favors short, punchy lines.
