A tall, tightly set sans with a compact footprint and a pronounced vertical rhythm. Letterforms are built from straight strokes and rounded-rectangle curves, producing squarish counters in bowls like O, D, and P and softened corners throughout. Strokes are essentially monolinear, with short, sturdy terminals and minimal detailing, giving the design a solid, blocklike texture. The lowercase keeps a straightforward, constructed feel with simple joins and closed, boxy apertures; figures follow the same squared, engineered logic for consistent color across mixed text.
Best suited to display settings where density and impact matter—headlines, posters, cover lines, and bold labels. The condensed build also works well for signage and wayfinding where space is limited, and for logotypes that want an engineered, contemporary voice.
The overall tone feels industrial and utilitarian, with a confident, no-nonsense presence. Its condensed, squared geometry reads as modern and urban, evoking signage, equipment labeling, and bold editorial headlines rather than delicate or expressive typography.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual weight and clarity in a narrow measure, using squared-off, rounded-rectangle construction to create a modern, industrial character. It prioritizes strong silhouette and consistent texture for attention-grabbing display typography.
The squircle-like round forms and compact sidebearings create a strong, continuous typographic “bar” in lines of text, especially at larger sizes. The crisp edges and uniform stroke treatment keep the texture even, while the tight proportions emphasize height and momentum.
