A tall, tightly condensed sans with sturdy vertical stems and compact counters. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, giving bowls and terminals a slightly squared, superelliptical feel rather than fully circular forms. Stroke endings are clean and blunt, with subtle modulation visible where curves meet straights, and the overall rhythm is strongly vertical. Uppercase forms are narrow and uniform, while the lowercase shows similarly compressed proportions with short extenders and small, efficient apertures, keeping word shapes compact and dense.
Best suited for display settings where space is tight and impact is required, such as headlines, posters, banners, and attention-grabbing packaging or brand marks. It can also work for short labels and navigation elements where a compact, high-contrast silhouette helps maintain presence in narrow columns.
The tone is bold and commanding with a utilitarian, metropolitan edge. Its compressed stance and squared-round curves evoke poster typography, editorial headlines, and industrial signage—confident, direct, and built to take up minimal horizontal space while still feeling weighty.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual weight within a narrow footprint, pairing sturdy industrial proportions with softened, superelliptical curves for a contemporary finish. It prioritizes compactness, uniform vertical rhythm, and strong silhouette clarity for headline-driven typography.
The design favors closed counters and narrow internal spaces, which increases density and impact at larger sizes but can make smaller sizes feel dark. Numerals follow the same condensed, upright structure, matching the overall vertical emphasis and maintaining consistent color across mixed text.
