A compact, heavy sans with tall proportions and tightly controlled counters. The design relies on squared-off rounds and rounded-rectangle geometry, producing C/O shapes that feel more like softened boxes than circles. Strokes are largely uniform with minimal modulation, terminals are blunt, and joins are crisp, giving the letters a dense, poster-ready texture. The lowercase maintains a strong, high-waisted silhouette with short extenders and simple, sturdy forms that hold up well at larger sizes.
Best suited to headlines and display typography where dense, high-impact letterforms are an advantage—posters, packaging fronts, signage, and bold brand marks. It also works well for short UI labels or wayfinding-style text when space is limited and a strong, compact presence is desired.
The overall tone is forceful and no-nonsense, with an industrial, sign-painter practicality. Its tight, upright stance reads as efficient and authoritative, leaning more toward utilitarian impact than softness or elegance.
The font appears designed to maximize impact in narrow horizontal space while maintaining simple, highly legible silhouettes. Its rounded-rectangle construction suggests an intention to feel contemporary and functional, with a consistent, system-like geometry across letters and figures.
The condensed rhythm creates strong vertical emphasis and a dark typographic color, especially in all-caps settings. Numerals share the same squared-round construction, keeping the set visually consistent for codes and short data-driven strings.
