A highly condensed sans with tall, upright proportions and a strong vertical rhythm. Strokes stay largely uniform, with minimal contrast and mostly flat terminals, while curves are built from squared-off, rounded-rectangle forms that keep counters compact. The joins and bowls feel engineered and controlled, giving letters a narrow footprint without becoming spindly; overall spacing reads tight and efficient in text.
Best suited to space-constrained settings where impact is needed: headlines, subheads, posters, and signage. It also works well for packaging and branding systems that benefit from a compact, vertical voice, and for editorial callouts where dense lines must remain legible.
The tone is direct and utilitarian, with a slightly retro-industrial flavor reminiscent of signage and compressed headline typography. Its narrow build and firm shapes convey urgency and authority, making it feel pragmatic rather than friendly.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence in minimal horizontal space, pairing condensed proportions with sturdy, low-contrast construction. Its squared-round geometry suggests a goal of consistent, system-like forms that hold up in bold display sizes and tight layouts.
Round characters like O, Q, and C appear more superelliptical than circular, which reinforces the structured, mechanical look. Uppercase forms are especially tall and commanding, while lowercase maintains readability through clear stems and compact counters; numerals follow the same condensed, sturdy construction.
