A tall, tightly condensed slab-serif with predominantly monoline strokes and crisp, square-ended terminals. The letterforms are built from straight stems and compact curves, with sturdy rectangular serifs that read as blunt feet and caps rather than bracketed transitions. Counters are narrow and vertical, and many round letters (like O/C) appear slightly squared and compressed, reinforcing a rigid, architectural rhythm. The overall texture is dark and even, with strong vertical emphasis and minimal stroke modulation.
Best suited to space-conscious display work such as posters, headlines, packaging fronts, and bold labeling where a tall condensed voice is helpful. It can also work for short subheads, menus, or signage that benefits from a firm, mechanical rhythm, especially when set with generous tracking to ease density.
The font projects a utilitarian, industrial tone—confident, compact, and slightly retro. Its narrow proportions and blunt slabs evoke labeling, machinery plates, and early 20th‑century display typography, giving text an assertive, engineered presence without feeling decorative or script-like.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in minimal horizontal space, pairing condensed proportions with blunt slab serifs for a sturdy, industrial readability. Its consistent stroke weight and squared finishing suggest a focus on clarity and repeatable texture across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
The condensed fit creates a dense typographic color that holds together in long lines, while the squared terminals and slab serifs keep edges crisp in high-contrast settings. Numerals and capitals share the same tall, compressed stance, making mixed alphanumeric strings look uniform and disciplined.
