A heavy, geometric sans built from squarish curves and rounded-rectangle counters. Strokes are uniform and dense, with compact proportions and tight-looking apertures that keep forms sturdy at large sizes. Curves resolve into softened corners rather than fully circular bowls, giving letters like O, C, and G a superelliptical, engineered feel. Terminals are mostly blunt, joins are crisp, and the overall rhythm favors solid silhouettes over internal whitespace; numerals follow the same squared, rounded-corner construction for a consistent texture.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and branding where impact and solidity are priorities. The dense shapes and reduced internal space make it effective for logos, labels, and packaging, and it can convey a sporty or industrial tone in advertising and product graphics.
The font reads bold and utilitarian, with a confident, no-nonsense voice. Its squared-round construction evokes machinery, athletics, and contemporary tech branding—clean, strong, and slightly aggressive without feeling decorative.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum punch with a clean geometric vocabulary, using rounded-rectangle forms to balance strength and approachability. It prioritizes bold silhouette recognition and a consistent, engineered construction across letters and numerals.
Uppercase forms feel especially compact and stable, while lowercase maintains similar mass and corner logic for a unified system. Many letters use smaller inner counters relative to their outer shapes, producing a dark, punchy color in paragraphs and headlines.
