A compact, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle construction and broad, even strokes. Curves read as squared-off superellipses rather than perfect circles, giving counters a soft but blocky geometry. Terminals are mostly flat with minimal modulation, and the overall rhythm is tight, with short extenders and strong, simplified joins. Numerals and capitals are built for punch and clarity, with wide apertures and sturdy interior space despite the condensed set width.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and signage where compact width and high impact help maximize space and attention. It can also work well for packaging and brand marks that want a sturdy, modern-retro voice. For long passages, it’s likely most comfortable in short bursts such as subheads, callouts, and labels due to its dense typographic color.
The tone is bold and no-nonsense, with a utilitarian, poster-ready presence. Its softened corners add approachability, balancing an industrial weight with a slightly playful, retro signage feel. Overall it communicates strength, immediacy, and practicality.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence in a condensed footprint, using rounded-rectilinear shapes to stay friendly while remaining robust. It prioritizes straightforward construction and consistent stroke behavior to keep forms legible and visually unified in display settings.
In text, the dense color and narrow proportions create a packed, headline-driven texture that holds together well at large sizes. The squarish bowls and counters give the face a distinctive “soft block” identity that stays consistent across upper- and lowercase and the figures.
