A compact, heavy sans with stout verticals and slightly rounded corners that soften an otherwise blocky, rectangular construction. Curves are built from squarish bowls and rounded-rectangle counters, creating a consistent superellipse rhythm across letters and numerals. The overall width is tight with short apertures and sturdy joins, giving glyphs a dense, efficient silhouette. Terminals are generally flat and decisive, and the lowercase keeps straightforward, utilitarian shapes with a sturdy, single-story feel where applicable.
Best suited for high-impact headlines, poster typography, branding marks, and wayfinding where a strong, condensed voice is needed. It can also work well on packaging and labels that benefit from dense copy blocks and bold emphasis, especially when set with generous tracking or ample line spacing.
The tone is bold and commanding, with a functional, engineered attitude. Its condensed massing and squared curves evoke athletic branding, industrial labeling, and contemporary signage where directness matters more than delicacy.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in minimal horizontal space while maintaining a cohesive, rounded-rectilinear geometry. It prioritizes sturdy silhouettes, fast recognition, and a contemporary, utilitarian character for display-led typography.
At larger sizes the geometry reads clean and intentional, but the tight internal spaces and compact apertures suggest it will perform best in short lines or display settings rather than long passages. Numerals match the letterforms with the same squared-round structure and strong presence.
