A compact, heavy sans with a squared-off, superelliptic construction: bowls and counters read as rounded rectangles, and terminals finish with consistent radiused corners. Strokes maintain an even thickness throughout, producing a solid, blocky texture with crisp verticals and simplified joins. Curves are restrained and geometric, giving letters like O/C/S a boxy roundness, while diagonals (V/W/X) stay clean and steep. The lowercase follows the same modular logic with sturdy stems, short-looking apertures, and compact counters that keep word shapes dense and uniform.
Best suited for display typography where dense, high-impact letterforms are desirable—headlines, posters, titles, and large-scale signage. It also works well for packaging and logo wordmarks that benefit from a compact footprint and a sturdy, geometric presence.
The overall tone is bold and functional, with a slightly retro, sign-painting/industrial flavor. Its condensed, squared-round geometry feels engineered and no-nonsense, projecting strength and clarity rather than softness or elegance.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in minimal horizontal space, using a consistent rounded-rectangular geometry to keep forms simple, robust, and visually uniform. It prioritizes strong silhouette and punchy texture for attention-grabbing typography.
Digits and capitals share the same tight, blocklike rhythm, creating an even color in lines of text. The rounded-square motif is consistent across the set, which helps maintain coherence at display sizes and in short bursts of copy.
