A condensed display sans with tall proportions and compact, economical letterforms. Strokes are mostly straight and vertical, with rounded-rectangle (superellipse-like) curves in bowls and counters that keep shapes smooth while preserving a rectilinear feel. Terminals are predominantly flat and squared off, and the overall rhythm is tight and vertical, producing strong word shapes in all caps. Lowercase forms stay narrow and upright with small apertures and short crossbars, while numerals are similarly tall and condensed for consistent color in text blocks.
Best suited for headlines, subheads, and short bursts of copy where space is limited but impact is needed. The narrow width and strong vertical rhythm work well for magazine titling, posters, packaging callouts, and brand wordmarks, especially when set in all caps. It can also serve as an accent face alongside a more neutral text family for navigation, labels, or pull quotes.
The font projects a confident, no-nonsense tone with a clear editorial and poster sensibility. Its tall, compressed silhouette adds urgency and impact, while the rounded-rectangular curves introduce a controlled, contemporary softness rather than a purely industrial hardness. Overall it feels modern with a hint of vintage headline styling.
Likely designed to deliver maximum presence in a compressed footprint, pairing tall, condensed proportions with rounded-rectangular geometry for a distinctive but controlled display voice. The consistent vertical stress and flat terminals suggest an emphasis on clean reproduction and strong headline color across varying lengths of words.
The design favors vertical emphasis: ascenders and capitals feel especially high relative to width, and internal counters are kept tight, which increases density at larger sizes. Curved letters like C, G, O, and S retain a squarish roundness, reinforcing a geometric, compact texture across lines.
