A condensed, heavy sans with a squared, rounded-rectangle construction and a uniform, monoline stroke. Curves resolve into softened corners rather than true circles, giving counters a superellipse feel; the O and 0 read as tall rounded rectangles. Terminals are blunt and flat, apertures are tight, and joins stay clean and mechanical. The overall rhythm is compact and vertical, with short arms and minimal modulation, producing strong, sign-like silhouettes in both uppercase and lowercase.
Best suited to headlines and short copy where dense, high-impact letterforms are an advantage—posters, sports identities, product packaging, labels, and wayfinding. It can also work for bold UI accents or badges where space is limited and shapes must remain clear at a glance.
The tone is bold and utilitarian, with a confident, no-nonsense voice. Its compact width and squared softness evoke sports branding and industrial labeling, balancing toughness with a friendly rounded geometry. Overall it feels energetic, straightforward, and built for impact rather than nuance.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch in a compact footprint, using a squared, rounded geometry to stay approachable while remaining strongly industrial. Its simplified construction prioritizes consistency and legibility in display settings, especially where tight widths and high contrast against backgrounds are useful.
The lowercase follows the same squared system, keeping bowls and shoulders compact; details like the single-storey forms and short crossbars reinforce a simplified, engineered look. Numerals appear robust and geometric, matching the tall, rounded-rectangular proportions of the caps and maintaining a consistent, tightly packed texture in text.
