A heavy, geometric sans with a squared, superelliptical construction: curves resolve into rounded-rectangle bowls and corners, and terminals are generally flat with softened edges. Strokes are consistently thick, producing a dense silhouette and strong color on the page. Uppercase forms are broad and stable, while lowercase maintains a straightforward, utilitarian structure with compact counters and minimal modulation. Numerals share the same squarish rounding and sturdy, sign-like presence, with clear, simple shapes intended to read quickly at display sizes.
Best suited for headlines and short blocks of text where weight and presence are desirable, such as posters, sports or event graphics, branding wordmarks, packaging, and clear wayfinding or signage. It also works well for interface labels and badges when used at larger sizes with ample spacing.
The overall tone is assertive and modern, with an industrial, sport-influenced confidence. Its rounded-square geometry gives it a contemporary tech feel while staying approachable rather than sharp or aggressive.
Likely intended as a high-impact display sans that translates the language of rounded rectangles into a cohesive alphabet for contemporary graphic applications. The emphasis appears to be on bold recognition, simple geometry, and a consistent, modern texture across letters and numerals.
The design leans on tight apertures and stout interior spaces, which increases impact but can reduce openness in small sizes. The rhythm is steady and uniform, emphasizing solidity and straightforward legibility over delicacy or calligraphic character.
