A compact sans with a squared-yet-rounded construction, where curves resolve into softened corners and many bowls feel like rounded rectangles. Strokes are heavy and largely uniform, producing dense counters and a strong vertical rhythm. Terminals are mostly blunt and straight, with slightly irregular, subtly humanized shaping that keeps repeated forms from feeling mechanically rigid. The overall texture is tight and punchy, with narrow proportions and sturdy, simplified geometry across letters and figures.
Best suited for headlines and short to medium-length copy where impact and compactness matter, such as posters, storefront and wayfinding signage, packaging, and bold brand marks. It also works well for labels, sports/utility graphics, and editorial display settings that want a sturdy, condensed voice.
The tone is bold and workmanlike, evoking industrial labeling, posters, and mid-century display typography. Its softened corners add approachability to an otherwise tough, no-nonsense voice, making it feel both retro and contemporary. The condensed stance and heavy mass give it an assertive, attention-grabbing presence.
The design appears intended to deliver a high-impact, space-saving sans that stays legible through simplified forms and consistent stroke weight, while using rounded-corner geometry to soften the overall feel. It aims for a pragmatic display aesthetic that reads clearly and confidently in bold applications.
The rounded-rectangle logic is especially evident in circular letters and numerals, where curves appear tensioned and slightly flattened rather than fully round. In text, the dense color and narrow set emphasize verticality and create a strong headline texture; at smaller sizes the tight counters may call for generous tracking and line spacing.
