A heavy, blocky display sans with squared contours, rounded-rectangle counters, and a pronounced mix of straight stems with subtly flared or tapered joins. Curves are built from broad arcs that transition into flat terminals, creating a chiseled, engineered look. Several letters show small notch-like cut-ins at joins and corners (especially in interior turns), adding crisp rhythm and helping open counters in tight areas. Numerals and capitals are tall and sturdy, with a slightly compressed, poster-ready silhouette and consistent vertical stress.
Best suited to headlines, posters, packaging, and identity work where a dense, commanding texture is an advantage. It also fits signage and sports/industrial themed graphics, and can be effective for short UI labels or badges when set with generous tracking and line spacing.
The overall tone is muscular and utilitarian—confident, disciplined, and a bit retro. Its squared geometry and cut-in details suggest machinery, athletics, or industrial signage, while the softened corners keep it approachable rather than harsh.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, high-impact voice through squared forms and controlled contrast, combining geometric clarity with small cut-in details to preserve legibility in dark, compact shapes.
The face maintains strong presence at headline sizes, with distinctive, easily recognizable shapes (notably in the S, G, W, and 2). Spacing appears tuned for impact more than quiet text flow, with dense, dark color and emphatic verticals that read best when given room.
