A sharply constructed, condensed sans with tall proportions and emphatic verticals. Strokes are built from straight segments with crisp corners, producing a faceted, almost cut-metal silhouette. Contrast is expressed through thick main stems paired with hairline horizontals and minimal joins, creating a strong dark rhythm with bright internal counters. Terminals are mostly flat and squared, and several forms use narrow rectangular bowls and tight apertures, reinforcing a compact, architectural texture in lines of text.
Best suited to display settings where its condensed width and strong vertical emphasis can create dense, striking headlines. It works well for branding marks, editorial titles, packaging callouts, and entertainment or tech-themed graphics where a hard-edged, engineered aesthetic is desired.
The overall tone is assertive and engineered, with a futuristic and slightly gothic edge. Its high-impact shapes and razor-thin cross-strokes give it a dramatic, poster-like presence that feels industrial and performance-driven rather than neutral or friendly.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in limited horizontal space, using angular geometry and extreme thick–thin relationships to create a signature, industrial voice for display typography.
The lowercase largely echoes the uppercase construction, so mixed-case text retains a uniform, display-oriented voice. Counters tend toward vertical rectangles, and the thin crossbars can visually recede at small sizes, while at larger sizes they add distinctive sparkle and rhythm.
