A compact, condensed sans with heavy, uniform strokes and tightly controlled widths. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, producing squarish bowls and counters (notably in C/O/Q and the lowercase). Terminals are blunt and mostly vertical/horizontal, with minimal modulation and a strongly vertical stance. Spacing is efficient and the interior apertures are relatively narrow, giving the face a dense, poster-ready texture; the Q features a distinctive centered tail cut into the bottom, reinforcing the engineered feel.
Best suited to headlines and short statements where dense, high-impact letterforms are an advantage. It works well for branding systems, packaging fronts, wayfinding or signage, and any application that benefits from a compact, engineered look at medium-to-large sizes.
The overall tone is strong and utilitarian, with an industrial, no-nonsense voice. Its squared-but-softened forms read as contemporary and technical, evoking sports branding, equipment markings, and modern signage rather than casual or literary typography.
The design appears aimed at delivering maximum presence in limited horizontal space, using rounded-rectilinear construction to keep forms sturdy and consistent. The intention is a modern, industrial display sans that remains legible while projecting strength and precision.
The lowercase maintains the same squared, compact rhythm as the caps, with single-storey forms where applicable and simplified joins that favor solidity over delicacy. Numerals follow the same blocky logic with rounded corners and tight counters, supporting a consistent, label-like appearance.
