A condensed sans with a geometric, superellipse-driven construction. Strokes show pronounced contrast for a sans, with thick verticals and noticeably lighter horizontals and joins. Counters are compact and squarish-rounded, producing a taut rhythm and dense color in text. Terminals are clean and unadorned, curves are controlled rather than calligraphic, and overall spacing reads tight and efficient, especially in the uppercase.
Best used at medium to large sizes where its condensed proportions and strong vertical emphasis can work as a space-saving headline tool. It suits posters, packaging, and brand wordmarks that benefit from a modern, industrial presence, and it can also serve in short UI labels or signage where a compact, emphatic sans is needed.
The tone is forceful and contemporary, with an engineered, no-nonsense voice. Its compact width and dense texture feel attention-grabbing and declarative, suited to messaging that needs to read as confident and direct.
The design appears intended to merge condensed efficiency with geometric, rounded-rectangle forms, delivering a strong typographic voice without decorative details. The elevated stroke contrast and tight counters suggest a focus on impactful display typography while keeping a clean, contemporary structure.
Uppercase forms lean toward tall, poster-like proportions, while the lowercase maintains a straightforward, utilitarian silhouette. The numerals and caps feel particularly punchy, with rounded-rectangle bowls and minimal optical softness, reinforcing a structured, display-forward character.
