A heavy, block-based sans with squarish, superellipse-derived outlines and generously rounded corners. Letterforms are built from broad rectangular strokes with frequent interior cut-ins and slit-like counters that create a chiseled, segmented rhythm. Curves are minimized and simplified into rounded rectangles (notably in C, O, and D), while diagonals appear sparingly and feel mechanically cut. The overall texture is dense and graphic, with tight apertures and compact internal spaces that emphasize silhouette over interior detail.
Best suited to large-format display settings where its cut-in counters and dense shapes remain legible: posters, headlines, title cards, event graphics, packaging, and brand marks. It also works well for short UI labels or badges when ample size and spacing are available.
The face reads as forceful and assertive, with a distinctly engineered, poster-driven presence. Its segmented counters and squared geometry evoke retro display typography associated with sport branding, arcade-era graphics, and industrial labeling.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact through compact, geometric silhouettes and distinctive internal notches, creating a recognizable, industrial signature. It prioritizes bold presence and brandability over continuous text comfort.
Numerals and uppercase forms share the same carved, inset logic, producing a cohesive, logo-ready system. The lowercase echoes the uppercase’s blocky construction, which can reduce differentiation at smaller sizes but strengthens consistency for bold headlines and short bursts of text.
