A compact, heavy sans with squared-off geometry softened by rounded corners and subtly curved joins. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, producing dark, even color in text. Counters tend toward rounded-rectangular shapes, and terminals are mostly blunt, with occasional angled cuts that add bite in letters like K, V, W, and Y. The uppercase set is tall and tightly proportioned, while the lowercase maintains clear, simple constructions (single-storey a and g) and short, sturdy extenders; figures are robust and straightforward with similarly compact widths.
Well suited to headlines, posters, and branding where a compact, high-impact voice is needed. It can work effectively for signage and packaging that benefits from bold presence and space-efficient letterforms, and it also lends itself to logo wordmarks that want a modern, toughened geometric look.
The overall tone is direct and forceful, with a no-nonsense, engineered feel. Its condensed, blocky rhythm reads as energetic and modern, leaning toward sporty and industrial applications rather than delicate or bookish ones.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch in a condensed footprint, using superelliptical rounds and blunt terminals to stay clean and contemporary while retaining a rugged, industrial edge.
In paragraphs the dense stroke weight creates strong emphasis and high presence, especially at larger sizes. The tight proportions and squared curves give the face a distinctive “rounded-rectangle” personality that stays consistent across letters and numerals.
