This typeface uses compact, condensed proportions with heavy, even strokes and rounded-rectangle construction throughout. Curves are built from soft, superellipse-like corners rather than true circles, giving rounds a squarish feel. Counters are small and tightly enclosed, terminals are mostly blunt, and the overall rhythm is dense and vertical. Lowercase forms appear simplified and sturdy, with single-storey structures where applicable and short, squared shoulders and joins.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and bold branding where compact width and strong presence are advantages. It can work well for packaging labels, signage, and logotypes that need a tight, stacked layout and a sturdy, industrial voice.
The tone is forceful and attention-grabbing, with a utilitarian, industrial flavor. Its squarish rounds and tightly packed massing add a retro display energy, balancing toughness with a slightly playful softness from the rounded corners.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in minimal horizontal space, using rounded-rectangle geometry to keep forms soft-edged while staying highly compact and dense. It prioritizes striking silhouette and uniform weight for display readability and strong typographic color.
In text, the dense spacing and small apertures create a dark color that favors short settings and large sizes. The numeral set matches the condensed, blocky construction, keeping a consistent, poster-friendly texture across alphanumerics.
