A heavy, monoline sans with rounded-rectangle construction throughout. Curves resolve into soft corners rather than true circles, producing superelliptical bowls and counters. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, and terminals are clean and squared-off while still softened by generous rounding. Proportions feel compact with short joins and simplified geometry; counters are relatively tight, and many shapes (like O/0 and B/P/R) read as structured, modular forms. The overall rhythm is punchy and even, with distinct, utilitarian letterforms and clear separation between uppercase and lowercase structures.
Best suited for display typography where weight and silhouette do the work: headlines, posters, branding marks, packaging, and bold signage. It can also fit UI labels or badges when a compact, high-impact voice is needed, especially at medium-to-large sizes.
The font conveys a bold, no-nonsense tone with a retro-industrial flavor. Its rounded corners keep it approachable, while the dense, squared geometry adds a mechanical, athletic energy. It feels confident and attention-grabbing without becoming sharp or aggressive.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through simplified, rounded-rect geometry and uniform stroke weight. It prioritizes strong silhouettes, consistency across the set, and a constructed feel that reads quickly in bold, graphic settings.
Numerals and caps share the same rounded-rectangle logic, giving headings a cohesive, sign-like presence. Several glyphs emphasize straight-sided bowls and inset counters, reinforcing a modular, constructed look that remains legible at display sizes.
