A heavy, block-driven sans with rounded-rectangle construction and consistently softened corners. Strokes are uniform and low-contrast, with square terminals and broad, compact counters that read as punched-out openings. Many joins and notches resolve into right angles, creating a slightly stencil-like, modular feel while keeping curves controlled and superelliptical. Overall spacing and proportions favor sturdy silhouettes and clear separation at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and branding where strong presence and quick recognition matter. It performs well on packaging, labels, and signage systems that benefit from compact, high-impact letterforms. Use at medium-to-large sizes to preserve clarity in the tighter counters and interior notches.
The tone is bold and no-nonsense, leaning industrial and sporty with a tech-forward, engineered flavor. Its chunky geometry and rounded corners balance toughness with approachability, evoking arcade signage, athletic branding, and utilitarian labeling.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual weight with a clean, geometric structure, combining rounded-rectangle curves with angular cut-ins for a distinctive, modular voice. It prioritizes punchy display readability and a consistent, industrial graphic texture across letters and numerals.
Uppercase forms are especially monolithic with squared bowls and clipped interior spaces, while lowercase keeps the same construction, producing a cohesive, system-like rhythm. Numerals are equally robust and geometric, matching the font’s squared curves and tight internal apertures for consistent impact.
