A heavy, compact sans built from squared-off curves and rounded-rectangle bowls. Strokes are thick with crisp edges and minimal modulation, producing dense, dark letterforms with tight apertures and small internal counters. Curves on C, O, and G read as squarish superellipses, while joins and terminals stay blunt and clean. The overall rhythm is uniform and blocky, with short extenders and a sturdy baseline presence that keeps text looking tightly packed.
Best suited to headlines, logos, and short bursts of text where maximum impact and high visibility are needed. It works well for sports or team branding, bold packaging labels, wayfinding-style signage, and promotional graphics where a dense, blocky texture reads as confident and sturdy.
The tone is bold and utilitarian, leaning toward athletic and industrial signage aesthetics. Its chunky silhouettes and compact openings create a commanding, poster-like voice that feels direct, assertive, and slightly retro.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual weight in a compact footprint, using squared-round geometry to stay friendly while still feeling tough and mechanical. It prioritizes punch and presence over openness, making it a strong display face for high-contrast layouts.
Uppercase forms are especially strong and rectangular, while lowercase maintains the same squared-round logic with sturdy stems and restrained detail. Numerals follow the same heavy, compact construction, staying highly prominent at display sizes.
