A compact, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle construction and strongly squared counters. Strokes are thick and fairly even, with small, softened corners that keep the forms from feeling sharp while preserving a blocky silhouette. The condensed proportions and tight internal space create dense letterforms; bowls and apertures are intentionally narrow, and the rhythm reads as vertical and punchy. Lowercase follows the same squared, superelliptical logic, with single-storey a and g, a straight, compact f, and short, sturdy joins throughout.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as headlines, posters, sports graphics, packaging, and bold brand marks where dense color and condensed width help conserve space. It can also work for labels and wayfinding at larger sizes where its squared, rounded shapes remain clear.
The overall tone is forceful and utilitarian, with a sports-and-signage energy. Its rounded corners add a friendly, modern edge to what is otherwise a strict, industrial voice, making it feel assertive without becoming aggressive.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a compact width, using rounded-rectangle geometry to create a consistent, modern display voice with strong presence in large type.
The numerals match the letterforms with boxy curves and minimal interior openings, producing a highly uniform, stamped look. The design favors impact over openness, so small sizes or long passages may feel dark and compact, while display settings emphasize its strong geometry.
