A condensed, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle construction and consistently softened corners. Strokes are largely uniform with subtle modulation, and curves resolve into squarish bowls and counters rather than true circles. The uppercase set is tall and compact with broad, flat terminals and sturdy joins; round letters like C, G, O, and Q read as superelliptical blocks. Lowercase follows the same geometry with single-storey forms (notably a and g) and a compact, utilitarian rhythm; dots and punctuation are simple and robust. Numerals are similarly narrow and weighty, designed for strong presence in tight horizontal space.
This face is best suited to headlines and short statements where compact width and high impact are advantages—posters, signage, labels, and packaging. It also fits sports or industrial branding systems that need a strong condensed voice for wordmarks, badges, and promotional graphics.
The overall tone is bold, functional, and assertive, with a sporty, signage-like confidence. Rounded corners keep the voice approachable, while the dense proportions and blocky curves add a tough, industrial edge that recalls mid-century display typography.
The design appears intended as a space-efficient display sans that maximizes punch through heavy strokes and condensed proportions, while using rounded-rectangle geometry to maintain a cohesive, contemporary feel and reduce harshness at large sizes.
Counters are relatively small and rectangularized, which increases impact but can tighten readability at smaller sizes. The ampersand is compact and geometric, matching the squared-curve language, and the Q’s short tail adds a distinctive, slightly retro signature.
