A compact, heavy sans with broad, rounded-rectangle curves and squared-off terminals. Counters are relatively tight and apertures tend toward closed, creating dense letterforms that read as solid silhouettes. The rhythm is uniform and muscular, with minimal modulation and crisp joins; bowls and rounds feel superelliptical rather than purely circular. Uppercase forms are tall and condensed, while lowercase keeps a firm, workmanlike stance with simple, single-storey shapes and strong vertical stress.
Best suited for high-impact display settings such as headlines, posters, packaging, and signage where a dense, forceful typographic voice is needed. It also fits sports and event branding, labels, and promotional graphics where strong, compact letters help maintain presence in limited space.
The overall tone is loud and confident, with a no-nonsense, utilitarian energy. Its thick, compact forms suggest strength and urgency, evoking sports signage and bold retail messaging with a slightly retro, poster-like attitude.
Designed to deliver maximum visual weight in a compact footprint, prioritizing bold presence and consistent texture. The rounded-rectangle geometry and restrained detailing aim for a modern, durable look that remains approachable rather than harsh.
The numerals are equally weighty and straightforward, matching the alphabet’s compact proportions for consistent headline color. In the sample text, the dense texture and tight internal spaces emphasize impact over delicacy, especially at larger sizes.
