A heavy, block-driven sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners throughout. Strokes are thick and assertive, with tight internal counters and occasional narrow apertures that create a compact, dense color on the page. Curves resolve into superelliptical bowls rather than true circles, and many joins show subtle scooped notches reminiscent of ink-trap behavior, adding crisp separation where strokes meet. Proportions lean tall with short extenders, and the overall rhythm is consistent and highly geometric across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to headlines and short bursts of text where maximum impact is needed—posters, branding marks, packaging panels, and bold signage. It can also work for labels and UI/wayfinding accents when used sparingly, ideally with generous spacing to preserve clarity.
The tone is bold and no-nonsense, combining a retro display attitude with an industrial, engineered feel. Its rounded geometry keeps it friendly, while the dense weight and squared forms give it a tough, utilitarian voice that reads as sporty and attention-grabbing.
Likely designed as a high-impact geometric display sans that prioritizes presence and a memorable silhouette. The rounded-rectangle vocabulary and scooped joins appear intended to improve separation in heavy strokes while reinforcing a cohesive, industrial-retro personality.
The face maintains a distinctive rounded-rect silhouette in key forms (notably bowls and terminals), which helps it stay recognizable at a glance. The tight counters and compact spacing suggest it will look strongest when given adequate tracking or set at display sizes where interior shapes remain open.
