A condensed, heavy sans with monoline strokes and a tall, rectangular silhouette. Forms are built from straight stems and squared bowls, with distinctive carved notches and internal cut-ins that create small counters and sharp corner relief, especially in letters like B, D, O, and 8. Curves are largely flattened into boxy arcs, terminals are blunt, and joins are crisp, producing a compact, rhythmically vertical texture that stays legible through strong negative-space shaping.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and bold callouts where a compact width and strong vertical presence help fit more characters into a line. It also works well for signage, labels, and packaging that benefits from an industrial, high-impact look, especially in short phrases and display sizes.
The overall tone is forceful and mechanical, with a stamped or engineered feel. Its tight proportions and angular detailing give it a disciplined, no-nonsense voice that reads as industrial, poster-forward, and slightly retro.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in minimal horizontal space while maintaining clear counters through strategic cut-ins. Its squared construction and consistent stroke weight suggest a focus on robust, reproducible letterforms for display applications.
The notch-and-slot detailing functions like built-in corner relief, helping counters stay open at heavier sizes while adding a distinctive, almost stencil-adjacent character. Numerals match the uppercase in density and geometry, reinforcing a consistent, signage-like color.
