A condensed, heavy display sans with tall proportions and compact counters. Strokes are mostly monolinear, built from straight segments and blunt curves, giving letters a carved, blocky silhouette. Many joins and corners show small notches and wedge-like cut-ins that create a slightly irregular, chiseled rhythm across words. Apertures tend to be tight and counters are small, while terminals are flat and squared, keeping the overall texture dense and high-impact.
Best suited to headlines, posters, packaging, and bold branding moments where density and impact matter more than long-form comfort. It can also work for signage or logo wordmarks that want a rugged, retro-industrial flavor, especially at medium to large sizes where the internal cut-ins remain clear.
The font communicates a tough, assertive tone with a retro, poster-era energy. Its sharp cut-ins and compressed stance feel industrial and slightly theatrical, leaning toward pulpy headlines rather than refined editorial typography.
The design appears intended as a high-impact display face that maximizes presence in narrow horizontal space. Its squared geometry and chiseled details suggest a deliberate move toward an industrial, vintage-inspired voice while keeping the construction firmly sans and straightforward.
Uppercase and lowercase share a similar, compact construction, with the lowercase maintaining strong vertical emphasis and minimal curvature. The numerals follow the same block-cut logic, producing sturdy, sign-like figures that read well at larger sizes.
