A compact, heavy sans with tall proportions and a tightly packed rhythm. Strokes are largely uniform and verticals dominate, with squared-off terminals softened by rounded-rectangle (superellipse-like) corners. Counters are small and often rectangular, giving the letters a dense, poster-like color on the page. Curves are controlled and geometric (not calligraphic), and joins stay crisp, producing a sturdy, engineered feel across both uppercase and lowercase.
Best suited for short, high-impact text where density and presence are assets—headlines, posters, wayfinding or signage, packaging callouts, and bold branding applications. It can also work for scoreboard-style or athletic graphics where compact width and strong silhouette help maintain clarity at large sizes.
The overall tone is forceful and functional, with a slightly retro industrial flavor. Its narrow build and dense counters read as assertive and space-efficient, suggesting signage, equipment labeling, or bold editorial headers rather than casual or delicate communication.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in limited horizontal space while keeping forms geometric and cohesive. Rounded-rectangle curves and simplified counters prioritize strong silhouettes and reproducible shapes, aligning with a practical, display-forward purpose.
Round letters such as O and Q appear as vertically oriented rounded rectangles, and several glyphs use straightened bowls and tight apertures that emphasize a mechanical, modular construction. Numerals follow the same condensed, block-like logic for a consistent typographic voice across alphanumerics.
