A condensed, vertical sans with squared geometry and mostly straight-sided bowls, giving the alphabet a tall, rectilinear silhouette. Strokes show deliberate contrast, with heavier verticals and finer internal joins and terminals, creating crisp counters and a slightly engineered rhythm. Corners are largely hard and squared, with occasional chamfer-like cuts and pinched joints (notably in diagonals and junctions), which adds a subtle carved or stenciled flavor without actual breaks. The lowercase is compact with narrow apertures, and the numerals follow the same tall, boxy construction for a consistent, sign-ready texture.
Best suited to display settings where a compact width and strong presence are desirable, such as headlines, posters, and bold brand marks. It also fits packaging and signage that benefit from a tall, regimented rhythm and a slightly retro-industrial character.
The overall tone feels industrial and assertive, mixing vintage poster energy with a utilitarian, machine-made discipline. Its tight, upright stance reads confident and controlled, with a faint Art Deco/sports headline vibe that lends drama without becoming ornamental.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in limited horizontal space while maintaining a consistent, constructed look. Its contrasted strokes and squared forms suggest a focus on strong typographic color and a poster-like presence for attention-grabbing display use.
The condensed proportions and strong vertical emphasis create a dark, continuous typographic color, especially in longer lines. Angular junctions and narrow counters can increase visual intensity, so spacing and size choice will strongly affect readability in text blocks.
