A compact, heavy sans with a distinctly squared construction softened by rounded corners and superellipse-like curves. Strokes are monoline and dense, with tight inner counters that create strong ink presence, especially in round letters like O/C/G and in the numerals. Curves transition quickly into verticals, giving bowls a squarish, pressed shape; terminals are mostly flat and blunt. The lowercase is sturdy and utilitarian with a two-storey a, a compact e, a robust t, and a descender-heavy g; punctuation and spacing read as tightly packed, favoring solid texture over airiness.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as headlines, display typography, brand marks, packaging fronts, and wayfinding or label-style applications where compact width is valuable. It can work in subheads or UI callouts when used with generous size and spacing, but it is primarily a display voice rather than a long-form text workhorse.
The overall tone is assertive and workmanlike, projecting strength and efficiency rather than delicacy. Its condensed heft and squared-round geometry evoke industrial labeling and sports branding, with a straightforward, no-nonsense voice.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual weight in minimal horizontal space, using squared, rounded forms to keep the texture friendly while remaining forceful. Its consistent monoline construction and compact proportions suggest a goal of creating a practical, attention-grabbing condensed sans for bold messaging.
At larger sizes the letterforms feel crisp and poster-ready, while at smaller sizes the narrow apertures and small counters may darken quickly in dense settings. The numerals share the same squared-round rhythm, supporting consistent, sign-like emphasis in headings and callouts.
