A compact, heavy sans with strongly squared-off curves and rounded-rectangle counters that create a superelliptical, “soft block” silhouette. Strokes are thick and uniform with minimal modulation, while apertures and counters stay tight, producing dense, high-ink forms. Geometry is straightforward and vertical, with short extenders, a tall x-height feel, and crisp terminals that sometimes read as notched or slightly stepped in joins. Round letters like O/C/G are squarish and robust, and the overall rhythm is compressed with sturdy, billboard-like letter mass.
Best suited for short, high-impact copy such as headlines, poster typography, logos, packaging callouts, and bold brand wordmarks where compact width helps fit more characters without losing weight. It also works well for sports or industrial-themed graphics and large-format signage where a dense, sturdy texture is desirable.
The tone is bold and no-nonsense, mixing an industrial practicality with a retro display punch. Its blocky softness keeps it from feeling sharp or elegant; instead it reads confident, loud, and workmanlike—more “statement” than “whisper.”
Likely designed to deliver maximum visual weight in a compact footprint, using superelliptical rounding to keep the forms friendly while preserving a tough, industrial presence. The goal appears to be strong legibility at display sizes with a distinctive blocky voice for attention-driven typography.
The tight internal spaces and dense proportions favor larger settings where the rounded-rectangle counters and distinctive joins remain clear. The numerals match the same compact, heavy construction, supporting consistent impact in mixed alphanumeric lines.
