A heavy, block-constructed sans with rounded-rectangle (superellipse) contours and strongly squared curves. Strokes are thick and uniform overall, with crisp, straight terminals and tight internal counters that stay legible through generous corner rounding. The design mixes geometric rigidity with softened corners, creating a modular rhythm across the alphabet; round letters read as squarish bowls, and diagonals (V/W/X/Y/Z) are broad and sturdy. Spacing appears compact and display-oriented, with sturdy numerals and a distinctive, rectangular zero.
Best suited for big, attention-grabbing applications such as headlines, posters, event graphics, and bold brand marks. The squared, rounded geometry also fits packaging, labels, and sports or tech-themed identities where impact and a structured, engineered look are desired.
The overall tone is forceful and utilitarian, combining a machine-made, industrial feel with a sporty, scoreboard-like confidence. Rounded corners keep it approachable while the dense black mass and squared forms project strength and decisiveness. The result feels modern-tech with a clear retro signage undercurrent.
Likely drawn to deliver maximum visual impact with a consistent rounded-rect geometry, balancing strict, modular construction with softened corners for friendliness. The emphasis appears to be on strong display readability and a distinctive, industrial-sport character rather than subtle text texture.
The font’s superelliptical shaping creates consistent curvature logic across bowls and corners, making the set feel cohesive even at very heavy weight. Apertures and counters are kept simple and rectangular, which supports clarity in large sizes but gives text a compact, poster-like texture in paragraphs.
