A heavy, geometric sans with squarish, superelliptical bowls and consistently rounded corners. Strokes are uniform and monoline, with broad horizontals and verticals that create a compact, block-like silhouette and a low-ink-trap, clean interior. Round letters (O, Q, o) read as rounded rectangles rather than circles, while diagonals (A, V, W, X, Y) are cut cleanly with minimal curvature. Counters are relatively tight and apertures are restrained, producing a sturdy, high-impact texture in text. The numerals follow the same wide, squared-off construction, with streamlined shapes and stable baselines.
Best suited to large-scale applications where its blocky geometry and rounded corners can be appreciated—headlines, posters, logos, and branding systems. It also fits product packaging and sports or tech-oriented graphics where a strong, engineered presence is desirable.
The overall tone is assertive and contemporary, leaning toward a techno and sports-display feel. Its rounded-square geometry softens the mass, giving it a friendly but tough, engineered character that reads as modern and performance-oriented rather than formal.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a clean, geometric voice, using rounded-rectangle construction to balance toughness with approachability. It prioritizes bold silhouette and consistent rhythm for display typography across modern, graphic layouts.
Several glyphs emphasize horizontal terminals and flattened curves, which helps maintain an even, mechanical rhythm at large sizes. The lowercase maintains simple, single-storey forms where applicable, keeping the design coherent and highly graphic in headlines.
