A condensed, heavy sans with a squared-round (superelliptic) construction and largely uniform stroke weight. Curves resolve into rounded-rectangle bowls, with compact counters and relatively closed apertures that create a dense, dark texture in text. Terminals are blunt and clean, and joins stay crisp, giving the design a machined, engineered feel. Figures follow the same compact, blocky logic, reading well at display sizes.
Best suited to display applications such as headlines, posters, brand marks, packaging, and signage where a compact footprint and strong silhouette are needed. It can work for short subheads or UI labels when sized generously and given adequate tracking, but it is less comfortable for long-form reading due to its dense texture.
The overall tone is strong and utilitarian, with a confident, no-nonsense presence. Its tall, compressed proportions and dense color suggest industrial labeling, athletic titling, and modern poster typography rather than delicate editorial work.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact and legibility in a narrow width by combining heavy strokes with rounded-rectangular skeletons. Its consistent geometry prioritizes a contemporary, industrial character that holds together in bold, space-efficient typography.
The condensed rhythm encourages tight setting for headlines, while the small counters and narrow interior space can fill in at smaller sizes. The uppercase forms feel especially vertical and sign-like, and the lowercase maintains the same rigid geometry for a consistent voice across mixed-case typography.
