A heavy, block-based sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners throughout. Strokes are massive and mostly monoline in feel, with tight internal counters and squared-off curves that read as superelliptical rather than purely geometric circles. Many joins and terminals show angular shaping and small notch-like cut-ins, giving the forms a machined, stamped character. Uppercase is broad and sturdy; lowercase maintains a tall x-height with simplified, chunky silhouettes. Figures are equally bold and compact, built from the same squared, rounded geometry.
Best suited to display sizes where its compact counters and dense color can read as intentional and impactful—headlines, posters, large-format signage, sports and event branding, and bold packaging callouts. It can also work for short wordmarks and labels where a sturdy, industrial voice is desired, but it will feel heavy and cramped in long passages of small text.
The overall tone is loud and utilitarian—confident, impact-forward, and slightly retro. Its softened corners keep it from feeling harsh, while the blocky construction and tight counters project strength and immediacy. The notched details add an engineered, industrial edge that suits energetic, attention-grabbing communication.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch with a rounded-rectangle, machined aesthetic—combining softened corners for friendliness with notched, blocky construction for toughness and clarity in big, bold settings.
The rhythm is dense and dark on the page, with minimal white space inside letters and pronounced mass in verticals. The design stays consistent across letters and numerals, favoring squared bowls and wide shoulders over delicate modulation, which helps it hold together as a cohesive display style.
