A compact, heavy sans with squared-off construction softened by rounded corners. Curves and counters tend toward rounded-rectangle forms, giving letters a uniform, engineered feel. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, producing dense color and strong silhouettes. Terminals are blunt and straight, spacing is tight, and the overall rhythm is vertical and compact, favoring impact over airiness.
Best suited to headlines and short bursts of text where high impact and compact width are advantages—posters, sports/event graphics, signage, and bold branding. It can also work in packaging and labels that need strong shelf visibility and sturdy, geometric letterforms.
The tone is bold and no-nonsense, with a utilitarian, poster-forward energy. The rounded-rectangle geometry adds a friendly retro edge while keeping the voice punchy and confident. It reads as sporty and industrial at once—built for loud, direct messaging.
The design appears intended to maximize visual punch within limited horizontal space, using superellipse-like bowls and blunt terminals to stay cohesive at large sizes. It aims for a contemporary, engineered look with retro overtones, emphasizing clarity and strength in display applications.
Round letters like O/Q and curved lowercase forms keep a controlled, squarish bowl, which helps the face maintain a consistent texture across mixed case. Numerals share the same compact, block-like proportions, matching the uppercase weight and presence in display settings.
