A tightly condensed sans with tall, column-like proportions and a consistent, even stroke. Curves are handled as rounded rectangles: bowls and counters are squarish with softened corners, and many joins transition abruptly into straights rather than flowing arcs. The overall rhythm is rigid and vertical, with compact internal space and generally closed apertures that keep letters feeling dense. Terminals are mostly straight and cut cleanly, reinforcing a machined, modular look across both uppercase and lowercase.
Best suited to display settings where space is limited but impact is needed—headlines, posters, storefront or wayfinding signage, and packaging panels. It also works well for tech-themed branding and for compact typographic treatments like labels, UI headers, and short callouts where its dense, vertical rhythm is an advantage.
The face reads as engineered and no-nonsense, with a retro display flavor that evokes industrial labeling, sci‑fi interfaces, and early digital signage. Its narrow stance and squared rounding project efficiency and control more than warmth or informality.
The design appears intended to deliver a condensed, high-impact voice with a geometric, superellipse construction that stays consistent across the set. It prioritizes a rigid, engineered silhouette and strong vertical emphasis for clear presence in tight layouts.
In text, the condensed width and tight counters create a strong, poster-like color that benefits from generous tracking and comfortable line spacing. The numeric set matches the same tall, rectangular construction, keeping a consistent texture for codes, dates, and technical readouts.
