A compact, tightly set sans with tall proportions and a distinctly condensed silhouette. Strokes are consistently heavy and even, with clean, flat terminals and minimal modulation, giving letters a sturdy, engineered feel. Curves are smooth but restrained, producing oval counters in C/O/Q and a compact bowl structure in B/P/R, while diagonals in A/V/W/X stay sharp and economical. The lowercase is simple and workmanlike, with short extenders and compact apertures; punctuation and numerals follow the same solid, space-saving construction.
This font is well suited to headlines and short bursts of copy where space is limited but impact is required, such as posters, packaging, labels, and wayfinding-style signage. It can also work for condensed UI headers or dashboard titles when a compact, high-presence look is desired.
The overall tone is direct and no-nonsense, with a slightly retro, poster-like assertiveness. Its narrow, emphatic shapes read as industrial and utilitarian, conveying urgency and efficiency rather than softness or elegance.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence in minimal horizontal space, prioritizing bold legibility and consistent texture. Its simplified, flat-ended construction suggests a practical display tool for attention-grabbing typographic blocks and compressed headline settings.
The face shows a consistent rhythm across straight and curved forms, favoring tight internal spaces and strong vertical emphasis. Round letters appear slightly compressed into vertical ovals, and joins stay crisp, supporting dense typographic color in blocks of text.
