A condensed sans with heavy strokes, tight apertures, and a tall, vertical stance. Curves are squared-off into rounded-rectangle (superellipse-like) bowls, giving counters a compact, engineered feel rather than a purely geometric circle. Terminals read clean and blunt, joins are crisp, and interior space is economical, producing strong color and a dense rhythm in text. Numerals follow the same compact, squared geometry with solid, uniform weight and clear figure silhouettes.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings where space is limited and strong presence is needed—headlines, posters, packaging fronts, labels, and bold brand marks. It can also work for signage or UI headers where condensed width helps fit more characters per line without losing punch.
The overall tone is tough, pragmatic, and attention-forward—more workwear than fashionable. Its condensed build and blocky curves suggest efficiency and authority, lending a no-nonsense voice that feels contemporary and slightly industrial.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual strength in a compact footprint, using rounded-rectangle geometry to keep shapes consistent and robust. It aims for fast recognition at display sizes and a firm, modern tone rather than delicate nuance.
Uppercase forms are especially tall and compact, with minimal flourish and consistent stroke behavior across the set. The lowercase maintains a straightforward, utilitarian structure with sturdy stems and compact bowls, prioritizing impact and space economy over openness.
