A condensed, heavy sans built from rounded-rectangle (superellipse) geometry. Strokes read largely monolinear, with corners consistently softened and terminals typically squared off with generous rounding. Counters are tall and narrow, and spacing is tight but controlled, creating a strong vertical rhythm. Key shapes favor straight-sided bowls and rectangular apertures; several letters use simplified joins and notches that keep forms crisp at display sizes. Figures follow the same narrow, squared-off construction for a cohesive texture across text and numerals.
Best suited to headlines and short display copy where a compact footprint and strong black value are advantages—posters, signage, packaging, and bold brand wordmarks. It can also work for subheads and pull quotes when you want a tightly set, high-impact look, but the dense texture suggests avoiding long body text at small sizes.
The overall tone is bold and utilitarian, with a retro-industrial flavor reminiscent of signage, equipment labeling, and editorial headlines that want a compressed punch. The rounded corners soften the severity, giving it a friendly, modernized “machine” feel rather than a purely rigid stencil or grotesk.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum impact in minimal horizontal space, using rounded-rectilinear construction to create a distinctive, industrial voice with clear, repeatable shapes for consistent display typography.
In longer lines, the condensed width and dense color create a strong, uniform stripe, while the tall counters help preserve differentiation between similar forms. The design’s consistent rounding and rectangular inner spaces make it especially distinctive in repeated verticals (H, N, M, W) and in compact word shapes.
