A tightly condensed, rectilinear sans built from straight strokes and squared-off curves. Forms are tall and narrow with consistent stroke thickness and crisp terminals, producing a hard-edged, engineered silhouette. Counters tend to be rectangular and enclosed shapes read as boxed, with occasional diagonal cuts (notably in letters like N, V, W, X, Y) adding sharp directional emphasis. Spacing is compact and the overall texture is dense, creating a strong vertical rhythm across words and lines.
Well-suited to posters, headlines, and branding where a compact, high-impact word shape is useful. It also fits packaging, labels, and signage that benefit from a mechanical, technical aesthetic and strong vertical emphasis.
The font conveys an industrial, techno-forward tone with a retro arcade or sci-fi edge. Its compressed proportions and rigid geometry feel utilitarian and authoritative, leaning more toward machinery and signage than warmth or softness.
The design appears intended to maximize impact and space efficiency through a compressed width and rigid, modular construction. Its squared counters and cut angles suggest a goal of evoking engineered precision and a distinctly stylized, futuristic or retro-tech voice.
Capitals and numerals are especially rigid and architectural, while lowercase maintains the same squared construction for a uniform, disciplined voice. The narrow fit and dense color make it visually impactful at display sizes, but the tight geometry can create a busy texture in longer passages.
