A compact, tightly set sans with tall, narrow proportions and uniformly heavy strokes. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, giving bowls and counters a squared-off, superelliptical feel rather than true circles. Terminals are clean and blunt, joins are firm, and interior shapes stay relatively small, producing a strong, poster-like texture. The lowercase follows the same condensed, straight-sided construction as the caps, with simple, closed forms and minimal stroke modulation.
Best suited to short, high-impact copy such as headlines, posters, branding marks, packaging callouts, and wayfinding or signage where space is limited. It can also work for subheads or labels when a compact, strong voice is needed, especially at medium-to-large sizes.
The overall tone feels industrial and no-nonsense, with a slightly retro, display-driven attitude. Its compressed rhythm and squared rounds read as confident and mechanical, evoking signage, equipment labeling, and bold editorial headlines.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in minimal horizontal space, using rounded-rectangle construction to keep forms sturdy and highly consistent. The goal seems to be a distinctive, engineered sans that remains clear and forceful in display contexts.
The font maintains a consistent rectangular curvature across letters and numerals, which creates a cohesive, engineered look in running text. The density of the forms can darken quickly at smaller sizes, while larger settings emphasize the distinctive squared-round bowls and tight spacing.
