A compact sans with heavy, even stroke weight and a distinctly squared, rounded-corner construction. Curves tend to resolve into softened rectangles, giving round letters a superellipse feel rather than pure circles. Counters are tight and verticals dominate, producing a tall, efficient silhouette with short extenders and a steady, poster-like rhythm. Terminals are blunt and clean, and the overall texture stays dense and uniform, with clear, simplified joins and minimal modulation.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and branding where a compact, high-impact word shape is needed. It also fits wayfinding and labels, especially in bold, short bursts of text, and can work for packaging or product identities that want a technical, modern edge.
The tone is pragmatic and no-nonsense, with an industrial, signage-like presence. Its rounded-square geometry adds a contemporary, engineered character—more functional than friendly—while the condensed proportions keep it assertive and space-conscious.
Likely designed to deliver maximum visual strength in minimal horizontal space, using rounded-rectangle forms to create a cohesive, modern industrial voice. The emphasis appears to be on bold legibility, consistent rhythm, and a geometric system that stays clean and punchy in display applications.
The numerals and capitals share the same squared rounding and compact spacing, reinforcing a cohesive, blocky system. In text, the dense color and tight interior space read best when given breathing room (larger sizes or generous tracking), where its geometric personality comes through without crowding.
