A heavy, condensed sans with compact proportions and squared, superellipse-like curves. Strokes are thick and uniform, with rounded corners that soften the otherwise blocky construction. Counters are relatively small and apertures tend to be tight, giving the face a dense, high-impact texture. The lowercase maintains a straightforward, sturdy build, while digits and capitals keep a consistent, vertically driven rhythm suited to stacking and large-setting use.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and prominent UI or packaging moments where compact width and strong color are advantages. It can work well for sports branding, event graphics, labels, and logos that need a dense, punchy voice. For longer text, it will be most comfortable at larger sizes or with generous leading to offset its tight interior spaces.
The overall tone is bold and no-nonsense, combining an industrial toughness with a slightly friendly softness from the rounded corners. It reads as energetic and attention-grabbing, with a subtly retro, display-oriented presence.
This design appears intended to maximize impact in limited horizontal space, pairing a condensed skeleton with softened, rounded-rectangle forms. The goal seems to be a sturdy, contemporary display sans that stays approachable while retaining a bold, industrial edge.
Round letters like O/C/G are drawn with squarish curvature rather than true circles, reinforcing a geometric, engineered feel. The sample text shows the weight holding up well at large sizes, where the tight counters become a deliberate part of the look rather than a legibility issue.
