A compact, condensed sans with heavy, even strokes and rounded-rectangle construction. Curves are tight and squared-off, producing superellipse-like bowls and counters (notably in C, G, O, and 0) with consistent corner radii. Vertical stems dominate, terminals are flat and blunt, and joins stay clean with minimal flare. Apertures are generally controlled, with a single-storey a and g and a firm, squared rhythm across both cases and figures.
Best suited to headlines, posters, branding marks, packaging, and signage where a compact footprint and strong silhouette are beneficial. It can also work for UI labels or navigation where space is constrained, though its heavy color and tight geometry favor short phrases and display-scale typography over long reading.
The tone is tough and utilitarian, with a slightly retro, signage-like flavor. Its compact widths and squared curves read as efficient and engineered rather than friendly or calligraphic, giving it a confident, no-nonsense presence in display settings.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a condensed width by using strong stems, squared curves, and consistent rounding to keep forms cohesive. Its geometry prioritizes a sturdy, industrial voice with clear, repeatable shapes that hold up well in bold, attention-getting compositions.
Uppercase forms are particularly uniform and boxy, while lowercase maintains the same geometry with straightforward, legible shapes. Numerals follow the same rounded-rectangle logic, with closed forms that feel stable and consistent alongside letters. Overall spacing appears designed for tight, impactful setting, especially at larger sizes.
