Keywords: headlines, posters, logotypes, packaging, sports branding, techy, industrial, futuristic, sporty, assertive, impact, modernity, systematic geometry, brand presence, squared, rounded corners, blocky, geometric, compact apertures.
A heavy, geometric sans built from squared, rounded-rectangle forms. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, and corners are broadly radiused, giving counters a soft-square (superellipse) feel. The uppercase is compact and sturdy with generous cap height, while the lowercase keeps a straightforward, utilitarian structure and a clear, simple rhythm. Bowls and counters tend toward rectangular shapes, apertures are relatively tight, and diagonals (as in A, V, W, X) are clean and planar, reinforcing a machined, modular look.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as headlines, posters, wordmarks, and product branding where bold silhouettes and geometric consistency are desirable. It can also work well for tech or sports-themed graphics, UI/UX accent text, and packaging that benefits from a robust, contemporary voice.
The overall tone is modern and forceful, with a tech-forward, engineered character. Its rounded-square geometry reads as contemporary and slightly futuristic, while the dense weight and compact openings add a tough, industrial attitude.
Likely drawn to deliver maximum presence through modular, rounded-square geometry and uniform stroke weight, aiming for a clean, engineered aesthetic that stays consistent across letters and figures.
Spacing appears designed for impact: forms are broad and stable, with squared terminals and minimal detailing that keeps silhouettes crisp at display sizes. Numerals follow the same rounded-rectangle logic, producing a cohesive, system-like set for interfaces or branded number-heavy uses.
