A compact condensed sans with tall proportions and a strong vertical rhythm. Strokes are largely monolinear and end in squared terminals softened by subtle rounding, giving the shapes a rounded-rectangle feel. Counters are narrow and vertical, with tight apertures and minimal modulation, which keeps the texture dense and even. The lowercase follows the same compressed logic with simple, upright forms and short, sturdy arms; numerals are similarly tall and narrow for consistent color in mixed settings.
Well suited to display settings where horizontal space is limited and strong presence is needed, such as headlines, posters, packaging, and product labels. It can also work for signage or short UI labels when set at comfortable sizes with slightly increased tracking to maintain clarity.
The overall tone is firm and functional, with a slightly retro, industrial edge. Its tightly packed forms and rounded-square geometry read as purposeful and no-nonsense, making the voice feel direct and attention-grabbing rather than delicate or expressive.
The design appears aimed at delivering a space-saving display sans with a consistent, engineered rhythm and softened rectangular curves. It prioritizes impact and compactness while keeping the forms clean and straightforward for practical titling.
Because of the condensed width and tight internal spaces, the typeface produces a dark, continuous typographic color that can feel intense in long runs. It holds up best when given enough size and breathing room (tracking/leading) to prevent counters from visually closing in denser words.
