A condensed, heavy sans with a squared, rounded-rectangle construction. Curves resolve into softly chamfered corners rather than true circles, giving counters and bowls a superelliptical feel. Strokes are broadly uniform with minimal modulation, producing a dense, high-impact texture. Terminals are mostly flat and blunt; joins are tight and compact, and the overall rhythm is vertical and steady. Numerals share the same boxy geometry, with simple, sturdy forms and compact interior space.
Best suited to short display settings where compact width and strong weight are advantages—headlines, posters, apparel graphics, sports branding, and packaging callouts. It can also work for signage or interface labels when set with generous size and spacing to preserve clarity.
The font reads as tough and utilitarian, with a straightforward, no-nonsense voice. Its squared rounding and compact build evoke industrial labeling and sports-minded display, with a slightly retro sign-paint and poster sensibility. The overall tone is assertive and functional rather than friendly or delicate.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in limited horizontal space, using squared-rounded forms to feel modern and engineered. It prioritizes bold presence and consistent geometry for graphic applications where legibility must remain sturdy under strong contrast and scale.
The tight apertures and small counters create strong color at larger sizes, while the condensed proportions keep headlines economical. The superelliptical geometry is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, reinforcing a cohesive, engineered look.
