A compact, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softly squared terminals. Strokes stay consistently thick, producing dense counters and a strong, poster-like texture in lines of text. Curves are drawn as superelliptical rounds rather than true circles, and many joins feel slightly pinched or tapered, giving the forms a chiseled, engineered look. The lowercase is notably tall and space-efficient, with tight apertures and short extenders that keep the overall silhouette blocky and uniform.
Works best where impact and compactness matter: headlines, large-format posters, storefront or wayfinding signage, packaging, and bold labels. It also suits team, gym, or streetwear-style graphics where a sturdy, condensed voice is desirable.
The overall tone is bold and no-nonsense, with an athletic, industrial edge. Rounded corners keep it approachable, while the dense blackness and compact rhythm make it feel assertive and attention-seeking—suited to energetic, contemporary branding.
The design appears intended to maximize presence in limited horizontal space while maintaining a friendly, rounded geometry. Its superelliptical curves and consistent stroke weight suggest a focus on strong, repeatable shapes that hold up well in branding and display settings.
At display sizes the compact counters and narrow openings read as intentional, creating a cohesive, stamp-like color. In longer passages or small sizes, the tight apertures and dense interior spaces may benefit from generous tracking and leading to preserve clarity.
