A compact, heavyweight display face with stout vertical stems and broadly rounded, superellipse-like curves that keep counters open despite the dense color. Terminals are blunt and softly squared, producing a blocky silhouette with rounded corners rather than sharp joins. Curves in letters like C, O, and S feel carved from rounded rectangles, while straight-sided forms such as E, F, H, and N stay rigid and upright. Spacing is tight and the overall rhythm is punchy, with strong vertical emphasis and simplified interior shapes.
Best suited to large sizes where its compact width and heavy weight can deliver maximum impact—headlines, posters, branding marks, packaging, and short signage messages. It can work for brief subheads or callouts, but the dense texture is less ideal for extended reading at small sizes.
The tone is assertive and attention-grabbing, with a friendly softness from the rounded geometry. It reads as retro-leaning and poster-oriented—confident, compact, and built to hold visual ground in headlines.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, space-efficient voice for display typography, balancing hard, vertical structure with rounded superellipse curves for approachability and clarity. It prioritizes strong silhouette recognition and consistent stroke mass for high-impact settings.
Lowercase shows simple, sturdy constructions with short extenders and rounded bowls, keeping the texture even across mixed-case settings. Numerals are similarly chunky and legible, with straightforward shapes that match the letters’ squared-round logic.
