A compact, heavy sans with squared-round (superelliptical) contours and a tight, vertical stance. Strokes are thick and fairly even, with subtle modulation mainly coming from curved joins and counters rather than strong contrast. Terminals are blunt and rounded, giving letters a soft-cornered, machined feel; counters tend to be narrow and vertically oriented, reinforcing the condensed texture. The lowercase is sturdy and simplified, with single-storey forms and short, firm shoulders, and figures match the overall dense, block-like rhythm.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, logos, badges, and packaging where a dense, confident voice is desirable. It can also work for bold UI labels or navigation elements when set with generous tracking and ample line spacing to offset the tight counters.
The overall tone is bold and assertive, with an industrial directness that reads quickly at a glance. Rounded corners keep the weight from feeling harsh, adding a friendly, retro-sport flavor reminiscent of headlines, uniforms, and packaging graphics.
The letterforms appear designed to maximize visual impact in a compact width while maintaining smooth, rounded-rectangle geometry for a modern, approachable edge. The emphasis is on clear silhouette, strong rhythm, and consistent heaviness for display-driven typography.
In text, the tight internal spaces and strong vertical emphasis create a dark, punchy color, especially in long lines. The design’s squarish rounds and clipped curves give it a distinctive stamped or sign-painter-inspired presence without overt ornamentation.
