A heavy, compact sans with pronounced stroke modulation and sharply cut terminals. The shapes lean on squared counters and flat-sided bowls, while curves (notably in C, G, O, S) are tightened into robust, almost geometric arcs. Many joins show small notches or wedge-like cuts that read like subtle ink-trap or stencil-adjacent detailing, helping counters stay open at this weight. Capitals sit tall and sturdy with broad verticals; lowercase is compact with short extenders, and the overall rhythm alternates between wide rounded forms and tightly packed straight-sided letters.
Best suited for headlines, posters, logos, and packaging where impact and compactness matter. It can also work well for badges, sports or event branding, and short UI labels where the heavy weight needs to hold up at small-to-medium sizes, though it will be most comfortable in display roles.
The tone is bold and declarative, with a distinctly retro-industrial flavor. Its cut-in details and dense silhouettes give it a tough, workmanlike presence that feels at home in energetic, attention-grabbing settings rather than quiet reading.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch with a compact footprint, using controlled contrast and cut-in detailing to preserve clarity in dense, heavy letterforms. It aims for a branded, period-tinged voice that stands out quickly and reproduces strongly in bold applications.
Round letters often have flattened sides and squarish internal spaces, which creates a strong modular feel across the set. Numerals are chunky and display-oriented, with simplified forms and confident curves that match the headline personality of the letters.
