A heavy, compact sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softly chamfered corners. Strokes are thick and uniform, with minimal contrast and generous internal rounding that keeps counters open despite the density. Curves resolve into superellipse-like bowls (notably in C, O, Q, and lowercase o), while terminals are flat and squared, producing a sturdy, poster-oriented rhythm. The lowercase is simple and workmanlike, with a single-storey a and g, a short-shouldered r, and a tall, straight-sided t; overall spacing reads tight but controlled for bold display settings.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as headlines, posters, sports or team branding, packaging callouts, and logo wordmarks. It holds up well at large sizes where its rounded-rect geometry and tight, bold rhythm can read as intentional and graphic rather than heavy.
The tone is loud and confident, balancing toughness with approachability through its rounded geometry. It evokes a retro, athletic sensibility—assertive enough for headlines, but not harsh thanks to the softened corners and open shapes.
The design appears intended as a bold, geometric display sans that maximizes impact while staying friendly and contemporary. Its rounded-rectangle forms and simplified details suggest a focus on strong silhouette, quick recognition, and reliable reproduction across attention-grabbing applications.
Numerals are wide and strongly shaped, with a clear, geometric 0 and a compact 1 with a firm top flag. The uppercase has a slightly condensed, billboard feel, and the lowercase maintains that same blocky presence, helping mixed-case settings look cohesive and emphatic.
