A heavy, block-driven sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softly radiused corners throughout. Curves resolve into squarish bowls (O, o, 0) and the straight stems are thick and steady, producing a compact, high-impact texture in lines of text. Counters are relatively tight and often rectangular, with occasional slit-like openings and notch details that add a slightly cut or stenciled feel without breaking the overall solid mass. Terminals are flat and squared, and the overall rhythm leans condensed and uniform, emphasizing bold silhouettes over delicate interior space.
Best suited to short, prominent text where its dense weight and squared-round shapes can carry impact: posters, bold headlines, retail or wayfinding signage, sports or team-style branding, and packaging fronts. It can work for brief callouts or UI labels at larger sizes, but its tight counters favor display use over long reading.
The font projects a tough, industrial confidence with a distinctly retro display flavor—more utilitarian than friendly, and more mechanical than humanist. Its squared rounds and dense black shapes create an authoritative, no-nonsense voice that reads as sporty and poster-forward.
The design appears intended to maximize visual impact with a cohesive superelliptical geometry—combining rounded corners with squared bowls to deliver a sturdy, engineered presence. The added notch-like details suggest a goal of injecting character and motion while keeping the overall structure simple, legible, and highly repeatable across glyphs.
The lowercase follows the same squared, rounded logic as the caps, helping mixed-case settings stay cohesive and punchy. Numerals mirror the letterforms’ compact geometry, maintaining the same blocky, rounded-rectangle counters for a consistent, system-like look.
