A compact, heavy sans with tightly condensed proportions and a predominantly monoline stroke. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle/superellipse forms, giving counters a squared-off softness rather than true circularity. Terminals are largely flat and abrupt, with minimal modulation and crisp joins that keep the texture dense and uniform. The x-height reads high relative to the ascenders, and the overall rhythm is vertical and insistent, with narrow apertures and economical spacing.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as headlines, posters, signage, labels, and packaging where its condensed width helps fit more characters per line. It also works well for bold brand marks or sports/event graphics that benefit from a strong, vertical texture.
The tone is bold and no-nonsense, with an industrial, poster-ready presence. Its tall, compressed stance and rounded-rect geometry lend a modern, engineered feel—confident, direct, and a bit stern rather than friendly or playful.
This design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in minimal horizontal space while maintaining a cohesive, modern geometry. The superellipse-like rounding softens the blockiness just enough to keep forms clean and contemporary, prioritizing punchy display performance over delicate detail.
Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent, compressed skeleton, and the numerals follow the same squared-round logic for counters and curves. The dense weight and compact widths create strong color in paragraphs, but small sizes may feel crowded where openings are tight.
