A tall, tightly set sans with a strongly condensed footprint and compact counters. The stroke weight is steady and blocky, with rounded-rectangle curves that keep bowls and bends smooth while preserving a slightly rectilinear, engineered feel. Terminals are mostly straight and crisp, and the overall rhythm is vertical and uniform, producing a dense, high-impact texture in text. Lowercase forms remain sturdy and compact, with minimal modulation and clear, simple joins.
Well suited to headlines and display typography where space is limited but impact is needed, such as posters, branding lockups, packaging, and wayfinding or signage. It also works for subheads and short blocks of text when a dense, modern texture is desired.
The tone reads utilitarian and contemporary, with an assertive, poster-ready presence. Its narrow proportions and squared-round geometry give it an industrial, architectural character that feels direct and no-nonsense rather than friendly or calligraphic.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence in a narrow width, combining compact, space-saving proportions with clean geometric construction for contemporary editorial and branding applications.
The condensed build increases emphasis and economy of space, while the rounded-rectangle curves prevent the face from feeling overly rigid. In running lines it creates strong vertical striping and a consistent, compressed color that favors punchy statements over airy reading.
