A condensed outline typeface built from a single, even contour line, producing hollow letterforms with open counters and a consistent stroke rhythm. The shapes are largely geometric with squared proportions softened by rounded corners, and curves are clean and controlled on letters like C, O, and S. Terminals are blunt and straightforward, joins are crisp, and the overall drawing stays uniform across caps, lowercase, and numerals. Spacing appears tight and vertical, giving the face a tall, compact texture, while key forms like the single-storey a and g reinforce a simplified, constructed feel.
Well-suited to headlines, posters, and signage where a compact footprint and strong vertical rhythm are useful. The outline construction also works effectively for packaging, sports-style titling, and logo wordmarks, and can be layered over color or imagery for graphic treatments in branding and editorial display.
The outlined construction gives the font a crisp, architectural tone that feels technical and display-forward rather than text-oriented. Its narrow stance and clean geometry suggest a utilitarian, industrial mood with a subtle retro sign-painting or packaging flavor, especially at larger sizes where the hollow forms read as intentional graphic shapes.
Likely designed as a clean, condensed outline display face that provides a lightweight visual presence while maintaining strong structure and legibility at larger sizes. The consistent contour and simplified geometry suggest an intention to serve as a versatile titling tool for modern, technical, or retro-leaning graphic systems.
Because the design relies on an exterior contour, the face benefits from generous size and contrast against the background; at small sizes the fine outline may visually soften. Numerals follow the same tall, streamlined logic, with rounded interior shapes on 0 and 8 and a straightforward, vertical 1.
