A condensed, monoline display sans with tall proportions, squared counters, and sharply cut terminals. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, but edges are shaped by angular notches and beveled joins that create a chiseled, stencil-like rhythm without full breaks. Curves are largely rationalized into straight segments and tight radii, producing rectangular bowls and pointed interior corners. Spacing appears tight and vertical emphasis is strong, giving lines a compact, columnar texture in text.
Best suited to headlines, posters, wordmarks, and short impactful phrases where its condensed width and chiseled detailing can read as intentional character. It can work effectively for packaging and signage that aims for an industrial or retro display look, particularly at medium-to-large sizes.
The overall tone is severe and engineered, evoking industrial signage and early 20th‑century display lettering. Its sharp cuts and rigid geometry feel assertive and slightly gothic, with a retro, poster-ready presence rather than a neutral voice.
The design appears intended as a compact display face that maximizes vertical presence while maintaining strong, uniform stroke weight. The beveled cuts and squared shapes suggest a goal of adding distinctive, engineered personality to a sans framework, balancing geometric order with decorative edge treatment.
In the sample text, the dense vertical patterning and narrow apertures can reduce readability at smaller sizes, especially in long passages, but it holds up well when set larger where the angular detailing becomes a defining feature. Numerals match the same narrow, architectural construction for consistent headline use.
