Keywords: headlines, posters, packaging, signage, labels, industrial, retro, utility, condensed, punchy, space saving, high impact, branding, labeling, rounded corners, compact, blocky, sturdy, tall.
A compact, tall sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softly blunted terminals. Strokes are heavy and even, with minimal modulation, producing a dense, poster-ready texture. Counters are small and squarish, apertures tend to be tight, and joins read more like pressed shapes than drawn pen forms. Overall spacing feels narrow and efficient, with a consistent vertical rhythm and slightly irregular, humanized edges that keep the geometry from feeling sterile.
Best suited to short text that needs impact: headlines, poster typography, packaging callouts, product labels, and wayfinding or storefront-style signage. It can also work for compact UI labels or category tags where space is tight and a sturdy, high-ink look is desired.
The face conveys an industrial, retro sign-painting energy—direct, practical, and a bit rugged. Its condensed massing and rounded corners balance toughness with approachability, giving it a utilitarian tone suited to attention-grabbing labels and headings.
Likely designed to deliver maximum presence in a condensed footprint, using superelliptical geometry to create a unified, stamp-like set of forms. The rounded corners and tight counters emphasize durability and legibility at display sizes while retaining a distinctive, vintage-industrial character.
Uppercase forms appear especially compact and monolithic, while lowercase maintains clear, simple silhouettes with minimal ornament. Numerals share the same condensed, rounded-rect profile, keeping the system cohesive and strongly graphic.
