A tall, tightly set slab-serif with strongly vertical proportions and a compact footprint. Strokes are mostly straight and rigid, with crisp joins and prominent, blocky slabs that often terminate in flat, squared ends. Curves (as in C, O, and S) are controlled and slightly squared-off, keeping the overall geometry rectilinear. The rhythm is even and disciplined, with consistent stroke weight and clean counters that stay narrow but open enough for display use.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, posters, and title treatments where a compact, high-impact voice is needed. Its narrow width makes it useful for packaging, labels, signage, and logo wordmarks that must fit tight spaces while staying bold and legible at display sizes.
The font conveys a firm, engineered tone—structured, no-nonsense, and slightly retro. Its condensed stance and squared detailing suggest industrial labeling, editorial headlines, and utilitarian signage, while the slab serifs add a traditional, authoritative edge.
The design appears intended to deliver a space-saving slab-serif voice with a mechanical, square-built personality—prioritizing vertical emphasis, strong terminals, and a controlled, typographic texture for attention-grabbing display typography.
Uppercase forms read especially architectural, with narrow bowls and vertical stress; lowercase mirrors that same strict geometry, keeping ascenders and descenders lean and upright. Numerals follow the same compact, squared construction, supporting a uniform texture in settings where letters and figures mix.
