A condensed sans with compact, vertically emphasized proportions and a largely monolinear feel. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, giving bowls and counters a squared-round, superelliptical character rather than purely circular forms. Terminals are mostly blunt and clean, with tight apertures and narrow internal counters that reinforce a dense texture. The overall rhythm is steady and utilitarian, with simplified joins and minimal modulation for consistent color in text and at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and branding where space is tight and impact is needed. It also works well for packaging, signage, and UI labels that benefit from a compact footprint and sturdy, high-clarity letterforms at moderate sizes.
The tone is forceful and efficient, projecting a no-nonsense, industrial modernity. Its tall, compressed stance and squared-round curves feel contemporary and slightly technical, lending a pragmatic, attention-grabbing presence without decorative flair.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence in minimal horizontal space, using rounded-rectangular construction to keep forms cohesive and modern. Its restrained detailing and consistent stroke behavior suggest a focus on legibility and visual economy in display-forward applications.
Digit forms follow the same condensed, squared-round logic, reading clearly in compact settings. The lowercase maintains strong verticality with relatively small sidebearings, producing a tight, blocky paragraph color that suits short lines and impactful setting more than airy, long-form typography.
