A compact, heavy sans with squared, superellipse-style curves and broadly rounded corners. Strokes are uniform and dense, with tight apertures and rectangular counters that give letters a machined, modular feel. Terminals are clean and blunt, and the overall geometry favors straight sides with softened corners rather than fully circular bowls. The lowercase is straightforward and sturdy, with single-storey forms where expected and short, solid joins that keep word shapes compact. Numerals follow the same boxy logic, reading clearly at a glance with stable, squared silhouettes.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, signage, and brand marks where the dense weight and compact shapes help maintain presence. It also fits sports and team-style graphics, labels, and packaging that benefit from a rugged, engineered voice. For longer text, it works most comfortably at larger sizes with generous spacing to offset its tight counters.
The tone is bold and no-nonsense, mixing an industrial toughness with a slightly retro sports/scoreboard flavor. Its compact, blocky rhythm feels confident and attention-seeking, suited to messaging that needs to land quickly and decisively.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum punch with a controlled, geometric look—prioritizing sturdy silhouettes, quick recognition, and a cohesive rounded-rectangle construction across letters and numbers.
The design’s closed-in counters and squared rounding create a strong texture in paragraphs, producing a dark, continuous typographic color. Diacritics or extended characters are not shown; the visible set emphasizes basic Latin letters and figures with consistent, system-like construction.
