Keywords: headlines, posters, sports branding, packaging, signage, assertive, industrial, sporty, compact, loud, impact, space saving, modernity, robustness, condensed, blocky, rounded, heavy, sturdy.
A compact, tightly set sans with heavy, uniform strokes and rounded-rectangle construction. Curves read as superelliptical rather than circular, giving bowls and counters a squared-off softness, while terminals are blunt and clean. Proportions are condensed with a tall lowercase presence, producing dense word shapes and strong vertical rhythm. Diagonals and joins are simplified and sturdy, and spacing appears engineered for impact at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines and short, emphatic copy where density and weight are assets. It works well for sports and streetwear branding, bold packaging, labels, and wayfinding or promotional signage where strong presence and compact set width help maximize impact in limited space.
The tone is forceful and utilitarian, with a contemporary, no-nonsense voice. Its compressed width and chunky forms create a high-energy feel associated with sports, urban signage, and industrial branding, while the rounded corners keep it from feeling sharp or aggressive.
Likely designed to deliver maximum visual punch in a condensed footprint, using rounded-rectangle geometry to create a modern, robust identity. The emphasis is on legibility at large sizes and a consistent, engineered texture that holds up in demanding display applications.
Counters are relatively tight, especially in letters with enclosed forms, which increases color and solidity in text. The overall silhouette stays consistent across caps and lowercase, emphasizing uniformity and punch over delicate detail.
