A very heavy, compact sans with a squared-off, superelliptical construction: round letters are built from rounded rectangles, and corners are consistently softened rather than sharp. Strokes are thick and largely uniform, producing strong color and dense texture, while apertures and counters stay relatively tight (notably in forms like e, a, and s). The overall geometry favors straight-sided bowls, flat terminals, and minimal modulation, with numerals and capitals matching the same blunt, engineered rhythm.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and short bursts of text where strong impact and compact width are desirable. It can also work well for signage, logos, and packaging that benefit from sturdy, engineered shapes, especially at medium to large sizes where the tight counters remain clear.
The tone is forceful and workmanlike, with a poster-like immediacy that reads as industrial and no-nonsense. Its rounded corners keep it from feeling harsh, but the dense massing and tight openings still communicate intensity and authority.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual weight in a compact footprint, using superelliptical, rounded-rectangle forms to balance toughness with approachability. The consistent geometry and blunt terminals suggest a focus on clarity and punch for display-oriented typography.
In text settings the font creates a dark, continuous typographic band, with letterforms staying distinct through their squared curves and consistent corner treatment. The narrow openings and heavy joins can make long passages feel dense, but they reinforce the font’s bold, condensed presence.
