A heavy, block-forward sans with softened corners and rounded-rectangle (superellipse) geometry throughout. Strokes are thick and largely uniform, with compact counters and short apertures that create dense, high-impact letterforms. Curves resolve into squared-off rounds, giving bowls and shoulders a squarish, machined feel rather than a purely circular one. Terminals are clean and blunt, and the overall rhythm is tight and steady, favoring mass and silhouette clarity over interior openness.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and short emphatic copy where strong silhouettes and dark typographic color are an advantage. It also fits signage, sports and team-style branding, and packaging that benefits from a sturdy, industrial voice. For body text, it will be most effective at larger sizes with generous spacing to offset the dense counters.
The tone is bold and no-nonsense, with an industrial, sporty energy. Its squared-round shapes feel utilitarian and retro in a poster-and-signage way, projecting strength and urgency. The overall impression is confident and attention-seeking rather than delicate or neutral.
The design appears aimed at delivering maximum visual punch with a consistent, squared-round construction—combining blunt terminals and compact counters for a strong, engineered presence. Its geometry suggests an intention to feel modern and utilitarian while nodding to retro display typography.
Uppercase forms read particularly compact and poster-like, while the lowercase retains the same dense, sturdy construction. Numerals match the heavy texture and squared-round curvature, keeping a consistent, uniform color in lines of text. In longer samples, the tight counters and small apertures amplify impact but can reduce readability at smaller sizes.
