A compact, tightly spaced sans with tall, rectilinear proportions and predominantly straight-sided forms. Strokes stay consistent throughout, with squared terminals and crisp corners that give the outlines a cut-from-bars feel. Counters are narrow and often rectangular, and many curves are simplified into verticals with minimal rounding, producing a rigid, modular rhythm. The lowercase keeps a short x-height relative to ascenders, reinforcing a stacked, high-rise silhouette in text.
Best suited for display work where a dense, high-impact line can carry attention—posters, title treatments, branding wordmarks, packaging callouts, and environmental or wayfinding-style graphics. It can also work for short UI labels or dashboards when space is limited, though longer passages may feel visually intense due to the tight counters and vertical rhythm.
The overall tone is utilitarian and engineered, with a distinctly retro-futurist, signage-like flavor. Its compressed stance and hard corners read as technical and urban, suggesting machinery, grids, and streamlined display typography rather than casual reading.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, space-saving display voice with a mechanical, geometric personality. By prioritizing straight strokes, squared terminals, and tall proportions, it aims for a modernist/industrial look that stays consistent across letters and figures.
In the sample text, the condensed width and tight interior spaces create strong vertical patterning, especially in runs of letters with parallel stems. The numerals and punctuation follow the same squared, architectural logic, helping mixed content feel cohesive in headings and short lines.
