A tall, tightly condensed sans with a sturdy, even stroke and minimal modulation. The letterforms are built from straight stems and compact, rounded bowls, producing a clean vertical rhythm and a dense texture in text. Apertures tend to be narrow and terminals are mostly flat, with curves kept economical and closed counters staying small at display sizes. Overall proportions emphasize height over width, giving both uppercase and lowercase a compact, stacked feel.
Best suited to headlines and short lines where space is limited and strong impact is needed. It works well for posters, signage, packaging, and labeling systems that benefit from a compact footprint and a clear, uniform stroke. In longer paragraphs it will produce a dense texture, so it’s most effective when paired with generous leading or used for brief copy.
The font reads as pragmatic and no-nonsense, with an industrial clarity that feels modern and efficient. Its condensed stance and strong verticals create an assertive tone suited to attention-forward messaging without ornamental flair.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence in minimal horizontal space, prioritizing compact proportions, consistent stroke behavior, and straightforward letter construction for clear, utilitarian display typography.
The sample text shows a dark, compact color on the page, where narrow counters and tight interior spaces increase density and impact. Round forms (like O/0) appear more oval than circular due to the compression, reinforcing the vertical emphasis. The numerals match the same condensed, sturdy construction for consistent inline use.
