A heavy, block-constructed sans with rounded-rectangle (superellipse) curves and squared counters. Strokes are consistently thick, with corners softened rather than sharp, producing a sturdy, machined silhouette. Many joins and terminals show deliberate step-like cut-ins and notches, creating a subtle stencil/slot effect that adds texture without breaking the overall mass. Uppercase forms are wide and imposing with tight internal apertures; lowercase echoes the same geometry with compact bowls and short extenders, yielding a dense, uniform rhythm in text. Numerals are similarly squared and solid, with closed forms (notably 0, 8, 9) and angular detailing that maintains the font’s engineered feel.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, poster typography, sports or team marks, and bold brand systems. It also fits industrial or technical packaging, UI badges, and signage where a compact, rugged look is desired, especially at larger sizes that showcase the cut-in details.
The tone is forceful and utilitarian—more signage and equipment labeling than editorial. The rounded-square construction reads modern and technical, while the cut-in details add a rugged, retro-industrial flavor that can feel sporty or militaristic depending on context.
The design appears intended to merge rounded-rectangle geometry with a rugged, engineered voice: a bold display sans that stays cohesive and compact while adding a distinctive, functional-looking notch motif for memorability.
In continuous text, the strong black shape and tight apertures create high visual impact but also a darker color and reduced interior whitespace. The distinctive notches become a recognizable signature at display sizes, where the stepped detailing is most legible.
