A compact, condensed sans with heavy, uniform strokes and softened corners that push many curves toward squared, superellipse-like shapes. Counters are tight and often rectangular, creating a sturdy, poster-ready silhouette with a consistent, low-detail construction. Round letters such as O and Q read as rounded rectangles, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) are sharply cut and energetic; terminals stay blunt and flat, keeping the overall texture dense and even.
Works best for large-scale text where dense, high-impact letterforms are an advantage—headlines, posters, signage, and bold packaging. It also suits sports or product branding that benefits from a compact, forceful typographic voice, and it can serve display roles in UI or labels when space is limited.
The overall tone is assertive and no-nonsense, with a bold, utilitarian feel that leans industrial and slightly retro. Its compact width and squared curves give it a sporty, headline-driven personality that feels built for impact rather than delicacy.
Likely designed to deliver maximum impact in minimal horizontal space, using squared-off curves and blunt terminals for a tough, modern-industrial texture. The goal appears to be a strong, cohesive display face that stays readable and consistent at large sizes while projecting confidence and solidity.
The condensed proportions create a strong vertical rhythm, and the tight apertures and short joins make letterforms feel compressed and efficient. The figures match the same blocky, rounded-rectangle logic, supporting consistent color in big numeric displays.
