A heavy, squared-round sans with a superelliptical construction: curves resolve into rounded-rectangle bowls and counters, and verticals read as firm, slab-like pillars. The stroke treatment is monoline in spirit but with noticeable contrast created by deep interior notches and sharp cut-ins at joins, producing an ink-trap-like bite in letters such as C, S, a, e, and g. Proportions are broad with generous width and a strong uppercase presence; lowercase forms are sturdy and compact with relatively closed apertures and short, blunt terminals. The numerals are equally weighty and geometric, with simplified silhouettes and strong horizontal emphasis in figures like 2, 3, 5, and 6.
Best suited to display work where mass and silhouette do the heavy lifting—headlines, posters, signage, and bold brand marks. It can also work on packaging and editorial covers that benefit from compact, condensed line breaks and a dense typographic color, especially at larger sizes where the interior cut-ins remain crisp.
The overall tone is assertive and high-impact, leaning toward contemporary display typography with a utilitarian, industrial edge. Its squared-round geometry and tight counters give it a controlled, engineered feel, while the interior cut-ins add a slightly aggressive, street-poster energy. The result is bold and attention-grabbing without becoming playful or ornate.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through broad proportions, squared-round construction, and sharp interior sculpting that boosts character separation. It aims for a modern, engineered display voice—built to read fast, hold space, and project confidence in short strings and large typography.
Spacing appears intentionally tight in text, amplifying density and headline authority. The shapes favor large, dark counters and deep joints, which helps letters stay distinct at big sizes and in punchy, high-contrast settings. Round letters (O, Q, 0) maintain a rounded-rectangle profile, keeping the design consistently superelliptical across cases and figures.
