A very heavy, compact sans with a squarish, superellipse skeleton: strokes terminate in broad rounded corners and counters are mostly rectangular with softened edges. Curves are minimized in favor of straight-sided bowls and flattened arcs, creating a sturdy, block-built texture. The lowercase is simple and sturdy with single-storey forms and tight apertures, while punctuation-like details and interior cut-ins are squared off. Overall spacing feels dense and even, producing strong word shapes and a uniform, poster-ready rhythm.
Best suited for display typography where impact and solidity are priorities—posters, headlines, athletic or event branding, packaging fronts, and logo wordmarks. It also works well for short calls-to-action and signage-style layouts where a compact, high-ink silhouette helps text hold its ground against busy backgrounds.
The font reads loud and confident, with a sporty, industrial energy and a touch of retro sign-lettering. Its rounded-rectangle construction keeps it friendly despite the weight, making it feel bold, approachable, and slightly playful rather than severe.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch through a rounded-rectangular, geometric construction, balancing toughness with friendly cornering. It prioritizes bold presence and consistent texture for branding and headline applications rather than delicate reading comfort.
The design leans on consistent corner radii and rectangular counters across both cases, which reinforces a cohesive, modular feel. At smaller sizes the tight apertures and heavy joins may reduce clarity, but at display sizes the forms look solid and punchy.
