A heavy, geometric sans built from chunky strokes with squared-rounded (superellipse-like) bowls and frequent chamfered corners. Counters are tight and often angular, producing compact apertures and a dense, poster-friendly texture. Terminals tend to be flat and cut, with consistent stroke thickness and a rigid baseline rhythm; diagonals (like in V, W, X, Y) are constructed from straight segments that keep the overall silhouette crisp and mechanical.
Best suited for short, high-impact text such as headlines, poster typography, logos/wordmarks, and bold packaging statements. It can also work for UI labels or in-game titles where a rugged, geometric voice is desired, provided sizes are kept large enough to preserve counter clarity.
The overall tone feels tough and engineered—somewhere between arcade-era futurism and industrial signage. Its clipped corners and compact counters give it a utilitarian, armored character, while the rounded-rectangle geometry keeps it friendly enough for playful, graphic applications.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through compact, rounded-rectilinear forms and clipped detailing, creating a strong silhouette that remains cohesive across letters and numerals. Its geometry suggests a focus on a distinctive, constructed look for branding and display typography rather than long-form reading.
The face reads best when given room: at smaller sizes the small counters and narrow openings can darken quickly, especially in letters like a, e, s, and g. Uppercase forms are particularly strong as display shapes, with a consistent, modular feel across the alphabet.
