A compact, condensed sans with heavy, monoline strokes and rounded-rectangle (superellipse) geometry. Curves are squared-off with softened corners, producing counters that feel more rectangular than circular. Terminals are largely flat and blunt, and the overall rhythm is tight and vertical, with minimal stroke modulation. Uppercase forms are tall and sturdy, while lowercase maintains a straightforward, utilitarian build with simple bowls and short extenders.
Best suited for large-scale typography such as headlines, posters, packaging callouts, and signage where density and impact are desirable. It can also work for sports or product branding that benefits from a compact, muscular word shape; it is less ideal for small body copy due to the heavy weight and tight internal spaces.
The tone is forceful and functional, leaning toward industrial clarity rather than elegance. Its condensed massing and blunt shapes give it a no-nonsense, attention-grabbing presence suited to assertive messaging.
The letterforms appear designed to maximize visual impact within a narrow footprint, using rounded-rectangle structures and blunt terminals to keep shapes strong, compact, and highly legible at display sizes.
The design favors closed, sturdy counters and compact apertures, which amplifies density in longer lines. Numerals follow the same squared, heavy construction for a consistent, signage-like texture across mixed text.
