A heavy, block-oriented sans with broad proportions and a compact internal rhythm. Strokes are thick with clear, deliberate modulation that shows up in curves and joins, giving counters a slightly pinched, ink-trap-like feel in places. Terminals are largely squared-off, while bowls and curves are smoothly rounded, producing a strong mix of geometry and softened corners. The lowercase is robust and sturdy, with single-storey forms and a prominent, fairly deep-shouldered ‘r’, and the numerals are wide, dark, and built for high visibility.
Well suited to headlines, posters, and bold brand marks where maximum presence is needed. It can also work for packaging and short, high-contrast signage-style statements, especially when set with generous tracking and line spacing to keep the dense shapes breathable.
The tone is loud, assertive, and built to command attention, with a faintly vintage, poster-and-headline sensibility. Its dense color and slightly sculpted curves add a muscular, no-nonsense personality that reads as sporty and industrial rather than delicate or refined.
This design appears intended to provide a forceful display voice: a compact, high-ink sans that stays legible through strong silhouettes while adding character through controlled stroke modulation and slightly carved counters.
At large sizes it delivers an even, emphatic texture, but in tighter settings the heavy weight and narrowed counters can make whitespace feel scarce. The overall spacing appears tuned for display impact, with strong silhouettes and clear differentiation between many capitals and numerals.
