A heavy, wide sans with compact proportions and generous internal counters. Forms are built from broad strokes with rounded corners and softly squared curves, producing a sturdy, block-like silhouette. Curves (C, O, S) read as squarish ovals, while joins and terminals stay blunt and clean, keeping the texture even and highly legible at display sizes. Numerals follow the same squared-round construction with large, open shapes and strong horizontal emphasis.
Best suited for headlines, signage, posters, and logo or wordmark work where bold presence and quick recognition are priorities. It also fits packaging and labels that benefit from a compact, sturdy typographic voice, and sports or tech-adjacent branding that wants an assertive, engineered look.
The overall tone is forceful and confident, with a sporty, utilitarian feel. Its squared-round geometry and dense color suggest a modern industrial sensibility with a subtle retro headline flavor, suited to attention-grabbing statements rather than delicate nuance.
Likely designed to deliver maximum impact with a wide stance and squared-round geometry, balancing friendliness from rounded corners with firmness from blunt terminals. The intention appears to be a versatile display sans that remains readable while projecting strength and modernity.
Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent, engineered construction; lowercase bowls and shoulders stay compact, helping lines of text hold a tight, solid rhythm. The font’s broad proportions and tight counters can create strong visual impact in short phrases, while longer text blocks appear dense and poster-like.
