A compact, condensed sans with heavy, low-contrast strokes and a strongly vertical stance. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, giving bowls and counters a squarish, superelliptical feel rather than true circles. Terminals are mostly blunt with minimal modulation, and joins stay tight and controlled, producing a dense, high-impact texture. The lowercase is straightforward and workmanlike, with short, sturdy extenders and single-storey forms where applicable; numerals follow the same solid, compact construction.
Best suited to short, attention-grabbing settings such as headlines, posters, storefront or wayfinding signage, and bold packaging labels where compact width is an advantage. It can also support sports- and utility-oriented branding systems that need an impactful, space-efficient voice.
The overall tone is forceful and no-nonsense, with a pragmatic, industrial character. Its compressed rhythm and blocky rounding suggest efficiency and authority rather than delicacy or warmth, making it feel contemporary and slightly retro in a signage-and-labeling way.
Likely designed to deliver maximum visual impact in limited horizontal space while keeping forms simple, consistent, and highly reproducible. The superelliptical rounding softens the bluntness just enough to feel designed rather than purely mechanical, supporting bold display typography with a controlled, modern rhythm.
Counters are relatively small for the weight, so interior space can close up in tightly set text; the design reads best when given enough size and breathing room. The rounded-rectangle construction stays consistent across letters and figures, helping maintain a unified, punchy silhouette.
