A compact, heavy sans with tall proportions and tight internal counters. Strokes are largely monoline and terminate in clean, squared ends, with subtly rounded corners that give curves a squarish, superellipse feel. Round letters like O/C/G read as rounded rectangles, while verticals dominate the rhythm, producing a strong, poster-like texture in text. The lowercase is sturdy and simplified with minimal modulation; apertures are relatively closed and the overall spacing reads dense and efficient.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and bold callouts where a compact, high-impact voice is needed. It can work well for signage, packaging, and branding systems that benefit from a strong, space-saving condensed style, particularly at medium-to-large sizes.
The font projects a firm, no-nonsense tone—practical, forceful, and slightly industrial. Its compressed silhouettes and chunky forms feel engineered and contemporary, leaning more toward signage and display impact than delicacy or warmth.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence in minimal horizontal space, using squared curves and sturdy monoline strokes to keep forms consistent and readable under bold emphasis. It prioritizes strong rhythm and a unified geometric voice for attention-grabbing typography.
In mixed-case settings, the condensed width and strong vertical emphasis create a pronounced stripe pattern, especially in words with repeated stems. Numerals match the same blocky construction and feel built for clarity at larger sizes, with a consistent, squared curvature across the set.
