A heavy, geometric sans with compact proportions and strongly simplified shapes. Curves are broad and smooth (notably in C, O, and S), contrasted by flat terminals and sharply cut joins that create crisp corners in letters like K, M, N, V, and W. Counters are relatively small and apertures are tight, giving the face a dense, poster-like color. Lowercase forms follow a sturdy, single-storey construction (a, g) with robust stems and short, firm terminals, while numerals are large, simple, and built for immediate recognition.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and short, high-impact messaging where the dense weight and compact counters can do the work. It can also support bold branding, packaging, and wayfinding/signage applications where a strong silhouette and quick readability at a glance are priorities.
The overall tone is assertive and attention-grabbing, with a no-nonsense, workmanlike attitude. Its dense black footprint and tight openings feel energetic and bold, leaning toward a sporty, industrial, and slightly retro display sensibility rather than a quiet text voice.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact with straightforward, geometric letterforms and a compact, solid texture. It prioritizes strong silhouettes and simple, robust construction for display settings.
Spacing and rhythm read fairly compact, which amplifies impact at larger sizes and makes word shapes feel solid and continuous. The mix of rounded bowls and angular diagonals adds a subtle “cut” character, especially visible in the diagonals and in letters with notched transitions.
