A heavy, compact sans with squared, superellipse-like bowls and consistently rounded corners. Strokes are thick and largely monolinear, with subtly tapered joins that keep counters open despite the dense weight. The overall geometry is vertical and efficient: narrow proportions, flat terminals, and tight apertures create a sturdy, architectural rhythm. Numerals and capitals share the same condensed, block-forward structure, producing a uniform, sign-ready texture in words and lines of text.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, wordmarks, labels, and environmental signage where space is tight but presence is required. It can also work for packaging and sports or event graphics, especially when a compact, blocky silhouette is needed for quick recognition at distance.
The tone is bold and utilitarian, with a retro-industrial confidence that reads loud and direct. Its compact width and squared curves suggest classic signage, sports titling, and mechanical labeling—strong, no-nonsense, and a bit vintage.
The design appears intended to maximize impact and legibility in condensed formats by combining dense strokes with squared, rounded geometry and open counters. It aims for a strong display voice that remains orderly and consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures.
Round letters are built from rounded rectangles rather than pure circles, giving the type a distinctive squared curvature and a steady, engineered cadence. The lowercase maintains a straightforward, workmanlike construction with minimal calligraphic influence, reinforcing the font’s display-first personality.
