A compact, heavy display sans with squared construction softened by rounded-rectangle corners. Strokes remain largely even, producing dense black shapes and a steady vertical rhythm. Counters are small and mostly rectangular, with apertures kept tight, and terminals finish bluntly with occasional notched or stepped joins on diagonals. Curves are rendered as superellipse-like bowls, giving letters such as O, C, and G a squarish, engineered feel while maintaining smooth continuity. Figures share the same compact, block-driven geometry for consistent color in headings.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as posters, headlines, labels, and wayfinding where strong silhouette and compact width help fit more characters per line. It also works well for sports-leaning identities, merchandise graphics, and bold interface banners where a dense, authoritative voice is desired.
The overall tone is forceful and utilitarian, with a distinctly retro-industrial flavor. Its compressed stance and dark typographic color read as urgent and confident, evoking sports graphics, packaging, and bold signage rather than quiet text typography.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum impact in limited horizontal space, using squared, rounded-rectangle forms to keep the texture consistent and the shapes highly legible at display sizes. Its geometry prioritizes sturdy silhouettes, tight counters, and an engineered rhythm for attention-grabbing typography.
The design relies on tight internal space and broad verticals, so spacing and line breaks benefit from generous leading and careful tracking at larger sizes. Diagonal letters (like K, V, W, X, Y) show simplified, angular construction that reinforces the font’s mechanical character.
