A condensed, heavy sans with squared proportions softened by rounded corners and superellipse-like curves. Strokes are uniform and emphatically thick, with broad, straight-sided verticals and compact counters that stay open but tight at this weight. Terminals are blunt and clean, and curves resolve into rounded-rectangle geometry rather than circles, giving bowls and numerals a squarish, engineered feel. Overall spacing and rhythm are compact, producing dense, high-contrast silhouettes that read as solid blocks at display sizes.
Best used for display typography where weight and density are assets: posters, headlines, packaging, logos/wordmarks, and bold signage. It can also work well for athletic and industrial branding systems, labels, and UI moments that need compact, high-impact emphasis rather than long-form reading.
The tone is bold and workmanlike, with a sporty, industrial edge. Its compact width and squared-rounded construction feel purposeful and assertive, suited to messaging that needs to land quickly and with authority.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a compact footprint, using squared-rounded forms to maintain a contemporary, engineered personality while keeping counters and apertures practical for legibility at large sizes.
The lowercase shows simplified, sturdy constructions that prioritize clarity over calligraphic nuance, and the numerals match the same squared-rounded logic for a cohesive texture. The strong, uniform color can overwhelm at small sizes, but it creates striking presence for short phrases and headlines.
