A heavy, block-built sans with rounded-rectangle construction throughout and broadly squared curves. Strokes are uniform and dense, with compact internal counters and short apertures that keep forms tight and punchy. Corners are consistently softened, producing a superellipse-like rhythm in letters such as C, G, O, Q, and S, while diagonals (A, K, V, W, X, Y) stay blunt and sturdy. Numerals follow the same squared, rounded logic, with the 0 and 8 reading as rounded boxes and the 1 built as a thick vertical with a strong foot.
Best suited to display settings where weight and shape can carry the message—headlines, posters, packaging, and bold brand marks. It also works well for punchy signage and sports/fitness applications, especially when set with generous tracking or ample line spacing to relieve the tight counters.
The overall tone is assertive and utilitarian, with a sporty, industrial feel and a slight retro-tech flavor. Its dense shapes and softened corners balance toughness with approachability, giving headlines a confident, high-impact presence.
The letterforms appear designed to deliver maximum impact with a cohesive rounded-rectangle geometry, prioritizing strong, easily recognizable silhouettes for branding and display typography.
The design emphasizes strong silhouettes over open interior space, which helps it hold together at large sizes but can make counters and apertures feel tight as text gets smaller. The rounded-square motif is highly consistent across capitals, lowercase, and figures, creating a cohesive, logo-friendly texture.
