A compact, condensed sans with heavy, even stroke weight and softly squared, superelliptical curves. Letterforms are built from rounded-rectangle geometry with blunt terminals, tight apertures, and minimal modulation, creating a strong vertical rhythm. The lowercase shows a single-storey a and g, short joins, and narrow counters that stay consistent across the set, while figures and capitals maintain the same tall, compressed stance. Overall spacing reads tight and efficient, emphasizing a dense, poster-ready texture.
Works especially well for headlines, posters, labels, and branding systems that need a compact, high-impact voice. It can suit signage and UI callouts where a condensed, heavy style helps conserve horizontal space, though longer passages may benefit from increased letterspacing for readability.
The tone is bold and punchy with a friendly softness from the rounded corners, balancing an industrial, utilitarian feel with a slightly playful, vintage display energy. Its compressed proportions and dark color make it feel urgent and attention-grabbing, suited to short, impactful messages.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in minimal width by combining condensed proportions with a softened, superelliptical construction. It prioritizes a consistent, modular silhouette and strong typographic color, aiming for a distinctive display sans that feels both sturdy and approachable.
In text, the dense letterfit and narrow internal spaces amplify weight and presence; it performs best when given generous tracking or larger sizes to preserve clarity. The rounded-rectangle logic is especially evident in O/C-like forms and in the squared-off shoulders and bowls, producing a cohesive, engineered look.
