A compact, heavy sans with largely uniform stroke thickness and tight internal counters. Curves are built from clean, near-circular bowls and smoothly rounded joins, paired with straight, squared terminals that keep the rhythm crisp. Proportions favor tall capitals and relatively short ascenders/descenders, with sturdy verticals and simple, unmodulated diagonals. Figures are robust and highly legible, with open shapes and minimal detail throughout.
Well-suited to headlines and short blocks of text where a compact, high-impact voice is needed. Its sturdy shapes and straightforward construction also work well for signage, packaging, and branding systems that prioritize clarity and punch in limited space.
The overall tone is direct and functional, with a confident, no-nonsense presence. Its compact geometry reads contemporary and slightly industrial, projecting clarity and decisiveness rather than softness or ornament.
The design appears intended to deliver strong readability and maximum impact in a condensed footprint, using simplified geometric forms and consistent stroke weight to stay clear and authoritative across common letter and number shapes.
The lowercase shows single-storey forms (notably the “a” and “g”), reinforcing a simplified, geometric feel. Punctuation and dots appear round and prominent, helping maintain clarity at display sizes.
