A heavy, block-oriented sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners throughout. Counters are small and often rectangular, producing dense, high-impact letterforms with broad shoulders and minimal modulation. Curves (notably in O, C, G, S) are built from superelliptic arcs, while diagonals in letters like K, V, W, X, and Z are straight and stout. The overall rhythm is compact and uniform, with squared terminals and a consistent, engineered feel across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Well suited to punchy headlines, poster typography, and branding where a compact, high-impact presence is needed. It also fits packaging and wayfinding-style signage, especially in short phrases or labels where the dense forms can carry visual weight. For longer passages, generous size and spacing help preserve clarity.
The tone is bold and confident, with a distinctly retro-industrial flavor reminiscent of athletic wordmarks, arcade-era graphics, and utilitarian signage. Its rounded corners keep the mass from feeling harsh, adding a friendly, approachable edge to an otherwise muscular voice.
Designed to deliver maximum impact with a cohesive rounded-rectangle geometry, blending industrial sturdiness with a softened, retro-friendly finish. The consistent, blocky construction suggests an emphasis on display performance and strong word shapes over delicate detail.
The glyph set shown emphasizes strong silhouettes and tight internal spaces, which reads best at medium-to-large sizes. The lowercase maintains the same blocky geometry as the caps, creating a cohesive, logo-like texture in mixed-case settings. Numerals are similarly hefty and squared, suited to prominent display use.
