A condensed, heavy sans with largely uniform strokes and compact proportions. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle forms, giving bowls and counters a squared-off, superelliptical feel rather than true circles. Terminals are mostly blunt with small radiused corners, and the overall drawing stays clean and consistent, producing a dense vertical rhythm. The uppercase is tall and tightly set; lowercase shapes are compact with sturdy stems and simplified joins, keeping counters relatively small at display sizes.
Best suited to bold headlines, posters, signage, and packaging where a compact width and strong color help text stand out. It can also work for branding marks and short UI labels when used at larger sizes with comfortable tracking.
The font reads assertive and no-nonsense, with a strong, engineered presence. Its compressed stance and blocky curvature evoke industrial labeling and sports or event graphics, prioritizing impact and clarity over softness.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact in a compact footprint while maintaining a clean, geometric construction. Its rounded-rectangle curves and uniform stroke logic aim for a modern, utilitarian voice that stays consistent across letters and numerals.
Round letters like O/Q and bowl forms in B/P/R retain a squarish interior, reinforcing the superelliptical geometry. Narrow apertures and tight counters increase punch in large settings but can make small sizes feel dark if spacing is tight.
