A heavy, block-driven sans with a superelliptical construction: most curves resolve into rounded-rectangle bowls and terminals rather than true circles. Strokes are uniformly thick with tight apertures and compact counters, giving letters a dense, ink-trap-free silhouette. Corners are broadly radiused and joins are crisp, producing a squared, machined rhythm across the set. Uppercase forms are tall and narrow with simplified geometry, while the lowercase keeps a large x-height and short ascenders/descenders for a strong, stacked texture in text. Numerals follow the same squared-oval logic, with bold, poster-ready shapes and minimal internal white space.
Best suited to headlines, posters, bold brand marks, and packaging where thick shapes and squared-round curves can carry across distance and printing conditions. It also fits sports and industrial-themed graphics, punchy signage, and short UI labels where a commanding tone is desired.
The overall tone is forceful and utilitarian, with a compressed, high-impact presence that reads as assertive and headline-forward. The squared rounding and dense massing add a sporty, industrial flavor that can also feel retro in a display setting.
The font appears designed to maximize impact and consistency through rounded-rectangle geometry, prioritizing bold legibility and a compact, muscular texture. Its simplified forms and tight counters suggest an intention for display-forward use rather than long-form reading.
The design leans on tight apertures and reduced counters (notably in letters like a, e, s) which increases visual weight and punch, especially at large sizes. The sample text shows a strong, even color in lines, but the compact interior spaces suggest it will prefer generous sizes and breathing room in tighter layouts.
