A heavy, compact sans built from squared curves and superelliptical bowls, with consistently rounded corners and blocky terminals. Counters are small and often rectangular, and the curves read more like softened boxes than circles, creating a distinctly engineered silhouette. The overall rhythm is tight and sturdy, with short extenders, broad strokes, and a dense texture that holds together strongly at large sizes.
Well suited to headlines, posters, packaging, and logo or wordmark work where a dense, powerful typographic voice is desirable. It can also serve effectively in badges, labels, sports graphics, and UI hero moments where large, bold text needs a compact footprint. For longer passages, it will read best in short bursts (pull quotes, subheads) due to its heavy color and tight apertures.
This font projects an assertive, no-nonsense tone with a confident, poster-ready presence. Its rounded-rect geometry softens the attitude just enough to feel approachable, giving it a sporty, industrial, and slightly playful voice rather than a purely brutal one.
The design appears intended for high-impact display use where strong shapes and quick recognition matter. Its superelliptical construction and rounded corners suggest a goal of combining toughness with friendliness, balancing a mechanical, modular feel with smoothened edges for better approachability.
Many shapes lean into squared bowls and chamfer-like joins, giving letters a slightly stencil-adjacent, engineered feel without breaking strokes. Numerals share the same rounded-rectangle logic, staying visually consistent and highly prominent in display settings.
