A tall, tightly set sans with condensed proportions and a heavy, even stroke. Forms are built from straight stems and rounded-rectangle curves, giving bowls and counters a squared-off softness rather than circularity. Terminals are clean and blunt, with minimal modulation, and the overall rhythm is vertical and compact. Numerals and punctuation follow the same narrow, sturdy construction for a consistent, signage-like texture.
Well suited to headlines, posters, and short emphatic copy where a compact, high-impact voice is needed. It can work for branding and packaging that benefits from a modern, engineered look, and for signage or labels where narrow width helps fit text into constrained spaces.
The tone is direct and functional, with an industrial, contemporary feel. Its compressed silhouette and squared-round detailing suggest efficiency and authority more than warmth, reading as confident and no-nonsense in display settings.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact and economy of space, combining condensed proportions with rounded-rectangular geometry for a modern, engineered aesthetic that stays clean and consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Round letters (such as O/C) show superellipse-like bowls with relatively tight inner counters, while joins and corners are smoothly eased rather than sharply cut. The overall darkness and narrow set create strong color blocks in paragraphs, making it most comfortable when given generous leading.
